LASEK eye surgery in New Al Shefa Clinic
About the clinic
LASEK and LASIK eye surgeries at New Al Shefa Clinic in Dubai help patients correct vision issues like nearsightedness and astigmatism. This multi-specialty facility is known for its high safety standards and holds QUAD-A accreditation. The ophthalmology department is led by Dr. Ahmad Hossein Zadeh, who has over 30 years of experience and has performed 20,000+ successful surgeries.
Advanced Laser Vision Correction
The clinic provides several methods to improve eyesight based on a patient's eye anatomy. Specialists use bladeless Femto-LASIK technology, which replaces traditional metal blades with a precise femtosecond laser. This method helps the eye heal faster and reduces discomfort. For patients with thinner corneas, the clinic offers PRK or ReLEx SMILE, which is a small incision technique. These options allow the medical team to customize the treatment for every individual case.
The Procedure and Recovery
The surgery is quick and usually takes less than 30 minutes for both eyes. The medical team follows a specific protocol to keep the patient comfortable:
- Anesthetic drops are applied to the eye to prevent pain.
- A bladeless femtosecond laser creates a thin corneal flap.
- An excimer laser reshapes the cornea in just a few seconds.
- The flap is repositioned and acts as a natural bandage without the need for stitches.
Most patients notice improved vision within 24 hours. Most people return to work within one or two days. Full vision stabilization occurs over several weeks. The clinic schedules follow-up visits at 48 hours, one week, and one month to track healing.
