LASIK treatment for myopia, astigmatism, and long-sightedness(congenital)

LASIK (Laser In-Situ Keratomileusis) is a surgical procedure to correct myopia, farsightedness (congenital) and astigmatism using a laser light called Excimer Laser.

LASIK

It consists of 3 main steps:

1. The process of separating the corneal layer, which uses a corneal layer separation tool called a microkeratome, takes 30-60 seconds to separate the corneal layer and can separate the corneal layer as thin as 100 microns.
2. The laser firing procedure uses an Excimer Laser to adjust the curvature of the corneal surface to an appropriate curvature. So that the light and vision that passes through the eye are refracted to the point of receiving the image.
3. LASIK surgery takes only 15 minutes per bilateral treatment. to -10.00 D, depending on the thickness of the glass. Therefore, you have to come in to check the condition of your eyes first.

PRK Vision Correction

• Permanent vision correction
• It takes 2-3 days to recover.
• Suitable for people with thin cornea or myopic people -0.75 to -4.00 D, tilt not more than -3.00 D-
• The cornea is stronger than the open-corneal method.
• Use corneal surface scraping.

Tran PRK Vision Correction

• Permanent vision correction
• The recovery time is 1-2 days, shorter than PRK.
• Suitable for people with thin cornea or myopic people -0.75 to -4.00 D, tilt not more than -3.00 D-
• The cornea is stronger than the open-corneal method.
• Using a laser shot directly at the cornea, the wound is smoother and the wound heals faster.

LASIK Vision Correction

• Permanent vision correction
• The next day, 80-90% of the time it is visible.
• Suitable for myopic people -0.75 to -10.00 D, tilt not more than -5.00 D, depending on corneal thickness.
• Separate the corneal layer with a special tool, making it possible to separate the corneal layer thinly. This makes it more effective to solve blindness.

FEMTO LASIK Vision Correction

FEMTO LASIK is a laser corneal opening that is targeted and uses another laser to shoot and close the corneal lid back, which will reduce the patient’s eye irritation. The smooth edges of the incision and the precision of the laser make the cut cornea the same thickness throughout and reduce the problem of corneal movement better.

Surgery to correct myopia, farsightedness, and astigmatism with ReLEX CLEAR

ReLEX CLEAR is a bladeless surgical technology that uses nanojoules low-energy laser FEMTO to isolate the corneal layer or open a corneal incision. Allows ophthalmologists to adjust the curvature of the lenses to correct the visual acuity accordingly. Low power consumption, combined with a small focal volume, results in a higher repetition rate and faster accuracy (1 million rpm/s). The edges of the wound are smooth. There is no negative effect on the nearby corneal tissue.

• The automatic pupil center detection function allows doctors to use the laser accurately and quickly (Auto-centering).
• Accurate astigmatism correction with Auto-cyclotorsion detection technology
• Small corneal incision (2.6 – 3.0 mm) reduces trauma and recovers faster.

Reduce complications for better outcomes with the efficient operation of ReLEX CLEAR technology, which better reduces complications that may occur later on, such as dry eyes. It only takes 1 day to 1 week to recover.

Who is suitable for treatment with PRK, Tran PRK, LASIK, FEMTO LASIK and ReLEX CLEAR.

• Be 18 years old or older and have a fixed eyesight value of 1 year.
• Not pregnant or breastfeeding.
• There are no eye diseases such as cornea. Severe dry eyes, macular degeneration, or cataracts.
• There are no physical diseases that affect the healing of ulcers and eye diseases such as SLE, HIV, diabetes, cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and corneal degeneration.
