TransPRK
The Brilliance of
No-Touch Laser Technology
TransPRK is a modern laser refractive surgery that offers an advanced, touch-free approach to vision correction. This minimally invasive procedure treats myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. TransPRK also eliminates flap complications in other treatments like LASIK while offering even greater benefits to those with thin corneas and high levels of nearsightedness – making it one of the fastest routes towards crystal clear vision. Although the recovery process is longer as compared to other laser vision correction procedures.
Advantages of Trans-PRK
One-step procedure with fast results of only 3-5 minutes per eye, making it a great choice for those who need a quick and easy solution.
No corneal flap is required, so there is no risk of any flap-related complications.
Suitable for active individuals, such as athletes and contact sports players, seeking refractive surgery without compromising their lifestyle.
A safer option for those in high-risk jobs like air force pilots, military personnel, navy divers, and others who cannot undergo LASIK due to thin cornea or high myopia.
Lower risk of long-term dry eye than other laser eye surgeries such as LASIK due to fewer steps taken in the procedure, which reduces the amount of corneal tissue manipulation.
Perfect for people who want to reduce their dependence on glasses and contact lenses without going through an invasive process.

Love it Khalid Nekzai06/09/2025 I had my SMILE eye surgery done at Visual Aids Centre and I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From my very first visit to the clinic, the entire team made me feel comfortable, informed, and cared for. The staff is extremely professional, friendly, and supportive. They explained every step of the process clearly, answered all my questions, and ensured I felt at ease throughout. The surgery itself was quick, smooth, and absolutely painless. The results have been life-changing – my vision is now crystal clear, and I couldn’t be happier. Even the follow-up appointments were handled with the same care and professionalism as the first visit. A big thank you to the doctors and staff at Visual Aids Centre for their excellent work. I highly recommend this place to anyone considering eye surgery. MUNAVVAR HASAN05/09/2025 Nice experience Noushir Jagmag04/09/2025 Excellent facilty to get vision corrected
