Surgical Procedures

Refractive laser surgery (LASIK, SMILE and PRK) corrects refractive errors by remodelling the cornea. These procedures offer a safe and rapid solution to achieve clear vision without the need for glasses or contact lenses.

Laser refractive surgery offers a remarkably rapid recovery, with most patients experiencing a significant improvement in functional vision within 24 to 48 hours.

PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) is a surface-based laser refractive procedure that reshapes the cornea to correct vision.

Topo- or wavefront-guided PRK is a personalized refractive surgery that corrects vision defects using corneal topography or the eye's wavefront aberrations, making it ideal for irregular corneas or high-order aberrations.

SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is a minimally invasive refractive surgery that corrects short-sightedness (myopia) and astigmatism by removing a tiny disc of corneal tissue - known as a lenticule - through a microscopic incision. Unlike LASIK, this procedure is "flapless," which helps maintain the structural integrity of the cornea. With the latest SMILE® pro technology, this advanced treatment is now also available for the correction of long-sightedness (hyperopia).

Presby-LASIK is an advanced laser procedure that remodels the cornea to correct presbyopia, effectively restoring functional vision across all distances: near, intermediate and far.

PTK (Phototherapeutic Keratectomy) is an excimer laser treatment that smooths the corneal surface to treat scars, dystrophies, or pain. The TransPTK and WetPTK variants offer a more uniform resurfacing, which is necessary in certain situations.

Clear lens exchange is a refractive surgery that replaces a still-transparent natural lens with an IOL to permanently correct vision and reduce reliance on glasses.

Intraocular lenses (IOLs) are implants placed in the eye to correct vision, either by replacing the natural lens (pseudophakic IOLs) or by adding to it (phakic IOLs).
