Popular Procedures
SMILE
Minimally invasive, flapless laser vision correction performed through a tiny incision (SMILE). Preserves more corneal strength and suits active lifestyles and dry-eye-prone eyes.
- Flapless, small-incision method
- Lower dry-eye risk
- Strong corneal stability
- Quick next-day recovery
Precision diagnostics → eye-drop anesthesia → femtosecond lenticule creation → small-incision lenticule removal → recovery check
- Use prescribed eye drops as directed
- Avoid rubbing the eyes
- Wear protective shields while sleeping initially
- Attend scheduled check-ups
LASIK
Flap-based laser vision correction with fast visual recovery. A corneal flap is created and the underlying tissue reshaped to correct refractive error.
- Fast visual recovery
- Minimal discomfort
- Wide correction range
- Same-day discharge
Precision diagnostics → eye-drop anesthesia → femtosecond flap creation → excimer laser reshaping → flap repositioning
- Use prescribed eye drops
- Avoid rubbing or pressure on the eyes
- Avoid swimming/saunas for 2–4 weeks
- Attend scheduled check-ups
LASEK
Surface laser vision correction without creating a flap, suitable for thinner corneas or higher-impact lifestyles. The epithelium is gently moved and the surface reshaped.
- No corneal flap
- Suited to thinner corneas
- Stable for active lifestyles
- Broad eligibility
Precision diagnostics → eye-drop anesthesia → epithelium loosening → excimer laser reshaping → protective contact lens
- Wear the protective lens until removed
- Use prescribed drops, expect early discomfort
- Strict sun protection (UV)
- Recovery is gradual over 1–4 weeks
ICL (Implantable Lens)
An implantable collamer lens placed inside the eye to correct high myopia without removing corneal tissue. Reversible and suited to those not eligible for laser surgery.
- No corneal tissue removed
- Corrects high myopia
- Reversible/removable
- Preserves corneal integrity
Precision diagnostics & lens sizing → eye-drop anesthesia → micro-incision → lens implantation → positioning check
- Use prescribed eye drops
- Avoid rubbing the eyes
- Avoid swimming for several weeks
- Attend scheduled pressure/position checks
