FINGERPRINT
IS UNIQUE,
So is every eye.
Did you know 43% of Visual impairments are attributed to Refractive errors and last year, more than 750,000 people opted for Laser Vision Correction with a success rate of 97-98%
A Refractive error is a condition in which the parallel rays of light coming from infinity do not come to a focus in the light sensitive layer of the retina. This may be caused due to changes in the length of the eyeball (longer or shorter), changes in the shape of the cornea, or age related stiffness of the lens.
Types of Refractive Errors
They are your eyes-they deserve special treatment
Lets understand if Laser Vision Correction is right for you and if you are suitable. Your eligibility for undergoing Refractive surgery will depend on the amount and types of refractive error you have, your corneal thickness and curvature. You must be 18 years or older, must have healthy eyes, not suffering from dry eyes, your eye power must be stable for atleast 6 months before surgery and you must not be pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not forget to mention any other medical conditions you have, or any medications you might be taking.

SMILE
(Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is relatively newer technique using only femtosecond laser to remove a small piece of corneal tissue called a lenticule through a small keyhole incision without creating a flap. It is bladeless, flapless and single step surgery.
TransPRK (Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy)
TransPRK (Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy) is an advanced touch-free laser refractive surgery that involves the removal of the epithelium of the eye, without suction, flap or blade, or without the use of alcohol.
