Your Path to Crystal Clear Eyesight Starts Here
Service Details
What is it
A touchless, bladeless surface-laser treatment. The cornea is reshaped on its surface without creating a flap — ideal for thinner corneas or active lifestyles where a flap is best avoided.
Suits you if
You have thinner corneas
an active or contact-sport lifestyle
are not suitable for LASIK, and want a well-established alternative.
May not suit if
you have keratoconus or unstable corneal disease, severe dry eye, active eye infection, or a prescription outside the treatable range. Recovery is slower than LASIK, so it may not suit those who need to return to full activity within a day or two.
Steps
- Anaesthetic drops
- the outer surface layer is gently removed by excimer laser
- then the excimer laser reshapes the cornea
- a protective contact lens is placed to aid healing.
Safety
A long track record with excellent outcomes. Because the surface heals over several days, mild discomfort and light sensitivity are common in the first days.
Recovery
Vision clears over several days to a couple of weeks as the surface heals; the protective lens is removed at a follow-up; avoid rubbing, swimming and strong sun as advised.
