Our Laser eye surgery Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Laser eye surgery, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

LASIK eye surgery

LASIK surgery is a laser vision correction procedure that reshapes the cornea to improve visual acuity.

Pros: LASIK surgery offers quick vision improvement with 96% of patients achieving desired vision. Fast recovery time makes it convenient for most individuals.
Cons: Potential for dry eyes and glare, affecting 20% of patients post-surgery. Not suitable for individuals with thin corneas or severe vision issues.
Effectiveness: 96%
Duration: 30 minutes
Recovery: 1-2 days
Best for: Mild to moderate myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism correction. Ideal for those with healthy corneas.

ReLEx SMILE eye surgery

A minimally invasive laser vision correction procedure that reshapes the cornea to correct refractive errors like myopia and astigmatism.

Pros: Less invasive than LASIK surgery with no flap creation, reducing the risk of dry eye syndrome by up to 40%. Faster recovery times and fewer complications due to its small incision. Suitable for patients with thin corneas.
Cons: Limited availability for treating hyperopia compared to other refractive surgeries. Requires specialized equipment, which is not available in all clinics.
Effectiveness: 96% success rate in achieving 20/40 vision or better.
Duration: Approximately 30 minutes.
Recovery: 1-2 days.
Best for: Individuals with myopia up to -10 diopters and astigmatism up to 5 diopters.

IntraLase Laser Eye Surgery

A precise laser technique used in vision correction, involving the creation of a corneal flap for improved visual outcomes.

Pros: Provides enhanced precision and safety due to laser technology, reducing flap-related complications by up to 95%. Offers better visual acuity improvement compared to manual methods.
Cons: Longer procedure time than LASIK surgery, with a potential increase in temporary eye discomfort. May not be suitable for all corneal shapes.
Effectiveness: Achieves a success rate of 98% in correcting vision to 20/20 or better.
Duration: The procedure takes approximately 30 minutes.
Recovery: Recovery typically spans 1-3 days.
Best for: Individuals with mild to moderate myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, requiring precise corneal reshaping.

Photorefractive Keratectomy

Pros: Suitable for patients with thin corneas or dry eyes, which may not be ideal for LASIK surgery. Provides a safe alternative with a 95% success rate in achieving 20/40 vision or better.
Cons: Longer recovery time than LASIK, often taking several weeks for full visual stabilization. Some patients experience temporary discomfort or haze during healing.
Effectiveness: 95
Duration: 30 minutes
Recovery: 7-10 days
Best for: Individuals with thin corneas, dry eyes, or those not suitable for LASIK. Addresses nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.

LASEK eye surgery

This procedure involves reshaping the cornea to correct vision using laser technology, combining aspects of LASIK and PRK.

Pros: Suitable for patients with thin corneas as it preserves more corneal tissue. Lower risk of dry eyes compared to LASIK surgery. Offers a higher safety margin for those with specific eye conditions.
