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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I traveled to India from U.S specifically for refractive surgery at Visual Aids Centre, and the experience completely exceeded my expectations. I originally went in dead-set on getting WaveLight Plus (custom LASIK) based on my own research. However, after detailed scans (cornea thickness of 574, myopia around -2.9, and minor astigmatism), the doctor took the time to explain why SMILE Pro was actually the safer option for me. Because I already experience mild dry eyes, he advised against a flap-based procedure, noting that SMILE Pro would deliver the same perfect results without risking permanent dry eye or flap complications. I highly appreciated his honesty and patient-first approach rather than just performing the surgery I initially asked for.

The SMILE Pro procedure itself was completely painless, fascinating, and finished in under 20 minutes. What truly set this clinic apart, however, was their outstanding hospitality. As a traveling patient, having a dedicated staff member on call for me to reach out to in case of any emergencies during my first few days of recovery provided incredible peace of mind.

The recovery followed exactly what they promised. After some initial fogginess on day one, I went back to my hotel, followed my strict drop schedule, and rested. By my final check-up before flying home, I was already reading the 1.2 and half of the 1.5 lines on their acuity chart (roughly 20/13.5 vision). My eyes are still finishing their final 35% of internal healing on a tapered steroid drop schedule, but I am already seeing significantly better than I ever did with glasses. Highly recommend this center and their team if you are considering flapless laser eye correction.

Shout out to the doctor who performed my surgery; you were the best!’
