What is LASIK Eye Surgery?

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a widely performed surgical procedure designed to reshape the cornea using precision excimer laser technology. It corrects common refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism, allowing patients to enjoy clear vision without spectacles.

Who May Need This Treatment?

Individuals aged 18+ with a stable glasses prescription for at least one year.

Patients seeking freedom from glasses or contact lenses for active lifestyles.

Individuals with mild to moderate myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism.

People with adequate corneal thickness as verified by pre-LASIK topographic screening.
