FemtoLASIK Laser Eye Surgery
FemtoLASIK (All-Laser LASIK) is the most advanced and precise form of LASIK laser eye surgery worldwide, over 30 million people have had the treatment. It is a quick, safe, and highly effective process. As a result, problems like myopia and astigmatism are corrected, and patients are free from glasses or contacts.
The surgery
The LASIK process takes under 15 minutes, with lasers focused on each eye for just 60 to 90 seconds. During the procedure, your surgeon uses a femtosecond laser to create the corneal flap with bladeless, computer-guided precision. This all-laser approach improves accuracy, safety, and healing compared to older mechanical LASIK techniques. Then, the surgeon folds back the flap and exposes the central layer of the cornea – the stroma. Using the precise excimer laser, the surgeon ablates corneal tissue point by point, following pre-surgery calculations to ensure the right tissue is removed. After reshaping, the flap is returned to its original position to allow the eye to heal.
No pain, BIG gain
The entire procedure is painless and very fast – less than 15 minutes. The lasers are used for just 60 – 90 seconds per eye re-shaping the front surface of the eye with extreme precision, the cornea. The procedure corrects the eye’s distance focusing error, so you won’t need glasses or contact lenses for clear distance vision.
Fast recovery time
The entire FemtoLASIK experience takes only around an hour and a half on the day, including preparation time, the procedure itself and relaxation time afterwards.
What’s more, most patients will be completely pain free and have good vision on the day after surgery.
Reasons to have FemtoLASIK eye surgery:
Improved Vision :
FemtoLASIK can significantly improve high definition vision, allowing people to see clearly without relying on glasses or contact lenses. This is a huge benefit for people who’ve been struggling with poor vision for years.
Safety :
With advances in laser technology, the small risks associated with FemtoLASIK have become increasingly minimal. Risks are minimised by choosing an experienced specialist laser surgeon who uses the latest laser technology.
Cost Savings :
Over time, the cost of glasses and/or contact lenses, all add up. FemtoLASIK is a very cost-effective solution to reduce long-term expenses related to vision correction.
Convenience :
For those always on the go or have an active outdoor lifestyle, a life not limited by glasses or contacts is a huge lift.
FemtoLASIK helps to improve self-confidence and allow people to feel more comfortable in their own skin.
