Laser Eye Treatment Procedures

Laser eye treatment is a surgical procedure. It is used to correct visual impairments. This procedure corrects refractive errors by intervening in the cornea layer of the eye with laser beams. It reduces the need for patients to use glasses or contact lenses.

Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis

It is the most popular laser treatment method. A thin flap is created in the cornea of the eye. The tissue underneath is then reshaped with a laser. The procedure is quick and patients can usually see normally the next day.

Photorefractive Keratectomy

It starts with the removal of the epithelial layer on the surface of the cornea. The laser then shapes the surface of the cornea. The healing process takes a little longer, but it may be more suitable for some patients.

Laser-Assisted Sub-Epithelial Keratectomy

The corneal epithelium is gently lifted, laser correction is performed, and the epithelium is placed back in place. The healing process takes a little longer, but may be more suitable for some patients.
