Contoura Vision (Topography-Guided LASIK) in Mumbai – Kurla BKC, Kalina & Bandra W

Contoura Vision is the most personalised form of laser vision correction currently available. Unlike standard LASIK which corrects only the spectacle prescription, Contoura also treats the microscopic irregularities unique to your cornea's surface — often delivering vision that is sharper than what glasses or contact lenses ever achieved.

What Is Contoura Vision (Topography-Guided LASIK)?

Contoura Vision uses a topographer to map over 22,000 individual points across your cornea. This data creates a completely customised ablation profile that the laser executes with extraordinary precision. The result is not just a corrected prescription but a smoother, more optically perfect cornea.

Who Is It For?

This procedure is generally suited to patients meeting the following criteria:

Patients who want the best possible quality of vision, not just functional vision
Those with irregular corneas, mild surface aberrations, or complaints of glare and halos on standard LASIK
Myopia up to –8 D with suitable corneal thickness
Age 18+ with a stable prescription

What Happens During the Procedure?

Each step is performed with precision and patient comfort in mind.

Step 1: Corneal topography mapping (22,000+ data points captured)
Step 2: Custom ablation profile generated and reviewed by Dr. Mickey
Step 3: Laser flap creation followed by personalised laser reshaping
Step 4: Flap repositioned; post-op drops and shield applied

Recovery & What to Expect

Similar to standard LASIK — most patients see well within 24–48 hours. Some report noticeably sharper night vision and reduced glare compared to conventional LASIK. Follow-up visits are scheduled at Day 1, Week 1, and Month 1.

Benefits

Patients choosing this procedure typically experience the following benefits:

Can deliver vision quality superior to glasses
Reduces higher-order aberrations that cause glare and halos
Personalised to your cornea — not a generic correction
Particularly beneficial for those with subtle corneal irregularities

FAQFrequently Asked Questions

Is Contoura better than regular LASIK?

For many patients, yes — particularly those who value the quality of their vision (contrast, night vision, reduced halos) over just achieving 6/6. However, the best procedure depends on your corneal shape and prescription, which Dr. Mickey assesses during evaluation.

Is the procedure more complicated?

Not for the patient. The additional complexity is in the planning — the actual surgical experience is very similar to LASIK.

What is the cost difference?

Contoura is priced slightly higher than standard LASIK due to the advanced mapping technology. Dr. Mickey's team will give you a detailed breakdown at your consultation.
