Vision correction surgeries

Vision correction surgeries

LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis): A laser reshapes the cornea to correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.

PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy): An alternative to LASIK, PRK reshapes the cornea’s surface with a laser without creating a flap.

SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction): A minimally invasive procedure that uses a laser to create and remove a small, disc-shaped piece of tissue from the cornea to correct myopia and astigmatism.

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE): Similar to cataract surgery, this procedure replaces the eye’s natural lens with an artificial one to correct significant refractive errors.
