We have very strict screening criteria for LASIK. What makes us special is that we have a high rejection rate if we find patient unfit for LASIK. Please read our section on LASIK complications. Safety is our first concern. We have special machines to screen patients for any potential problems during or after LASIK. We have a range of treatments available for all types of patients even if patients are found to be unfit for LASIK.
Moreover, we use disposable items during LASIK, ensuring high safety and precision. Our machine has eye tracking devices which enable to give proper treatment in case of excessive eye movements.
Some of the Treatments that we offer are:
1. Thin Flap LASIK
2. Surface Ablations
3. Femtosecond laser technology
4. Implantable contact Lens (ICL) /Phakic IOLS
5. orthokeratology
6. Standard LASIK
There are 3 ways in which LASIK can be performed with us:
1. Standard LASIK:
Involves the use of standard protocols and eye parameters. The eye number is fed into the laser machine and the laser is delivered onto the eye in a standard manner..
2. Custom/Tailor made LASIK:
involves taking some extra measurements of the eye. This methodology involves using combinations of various methodologies including wavefront treatment, special laser softwares and use of special disposable items during the LASIK procedure.
Important: The choice between the above two depends upon the eye examination findings and the cost difference between the two methods.
3. Femtosecond LASIK/Bladeless LASIK:
This is the latest modification in the LASIK technique. It is a well tried technique (American FDA approved), where a laser is used to fashion the flap instead of using a micro keratome as in standard technique. The rest of the laser procedure is the same as the standard LASIK. The same laser is used in all the 3 techniques. This additional Femtosecond step makes the flap in a more cleaner and predictable manner. However, because of the cost of the equipment, this LASIK is about 2-3 times more expensive than the standard and customised LASIK.
