What is LASIK Eye Surgery?
LASIK eye surgery is a laser vision correction procedure designed to correct common refractive errors of the eye. These refractive errors occur when the cornea does not bend light properly, causing blurred vision.
During LASIK surgery, a specialised laser reshapes the cornea so that light entering the eye focuses accurately on the retina. This improves visual clarity and reduces the need for glasses or contact lenses.
The procedure is widely used for vision correction because it is quick, precise, and offers rapid visual recovery for most patients.
Vision Problems Treated with LASIK
LASIK surgery is commonly used to correct the following vision problems:
- Myopia (Nearsightedness) -- distant objects appear blurred because light focuses in front of the retina
- Hyperopia (Farsightedness) -- nearby objects appear blurred because light focuses behind the retina
- Astigmatism -- irregular curvature of the cornea causes distorted or blurred vision
Who is Eligible for LASIK Eye Surgery?
LASIK eye surgery is suitable for many individuals, but not everyone may be an ideal candidate. A detailed eye examination helps determine eligibility.
Generally, suitable candidates include:
- Individuals above 18 years of age
- Patients with stable vision for at least one year
- People with healthy corneas and adequate corneal thickness
- Individuals without severe eye diseases
LASIK Eye Evaluation & Diagnosis
Before LASIK surgery, a comprehensive eye examination is performed to evaluate the health and structure of the eye. The evaluation may include:
- Vision and refraction testing
- Corneal thickness measurement
- Corneal topography mapping
- Tear film evaluation
- Retinal examination
LASIK Treatment Options
Depending on the patient's eye condition and vision requirements, different types of laser vision correction procedures may be recommended.
Modern LASIK treatments aim to provide improved accuracy, faster recovery, and better visual outcomes.
During consultation at Dr Mickey's Eye Care Centre, patients receive personalised guidance regarding the most appropriate treatment option based on their eye examination results.
Types of LASIK / Vision Correction Procedures
Several laser vision correction techniques are available today:
- LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) -- the most commonly performed procedure for correcting refractive errors
- Femto LASIK -- uses femtosecond laser technology for creating the corneal flap with greater precision
- SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) -- a minimally invasive vision correction procedure performed through a small corneal incision
LASIK Eye Surgery Procedure
LASIK surgery is a quick and precise procedure typically completed within a few minutes for each eye. The general steps include:
- Numbing eye drops are applied for comfort
- A thin corneal flap is created using advanced laser technology
- An excimer laser reshapes the cornea to correct the refractive error
- The flap is repositioned naturally without stitches
Recovery After LASIK Surgery
Recovery after LASIK surgery is usually quick, and many patients experience improved vision within 24 hours. During the recovery period, patients may be advised to:
- Use prescribed eye drops regularly
- Avoid rubbing the eyes
- Limit screen exposure for a short period
- Wear protective eyewear if recommended
