Custom Lasik A Step Ahead of Conventional Lasik

Custom Lasik Offers a number of advantages over other forms of conventional lasik by reshaping the cornea with excimer laser based on a computer generated ablation map using data from the corneal topographer and wavefront aberrometer system for each treated eye unlike going simply by your glass prescription which is prone for errors of judgement.

To simplify, each eye is unique like your finger prints. Custom lasik is a revolutionary concept in lasik which customises treatment for the correction of visual errors including the smallest of aberrations. In effect you could gain a theoretical visual acuity of 6/3 more like super vision.

Custom lasik can treat a higher range of refractive errors with minimal risk, there by reducing or eliminating a life time dependance on glasses or contact lenses.

  • Short sight upto -20 diopters

  • Long sight upto +8 diopters

  • Cylindrical power upto ± 6 diopters

Customised Treatment

Pre-operative Treatment Pattern Post Treatment

The Procedure

After your eye has been completely numbed using "eye drop" anaesthesia, an eyelid holder will be placed between your eyelids to prevent you from blinking.

Next, an instrument known as a microkeratome makes a protective flap in pressure, but no discomfort. You will be asked to look directly at a target light while the laser reshapes the cornea, usually in less than a minute. Then, the protective flap is folded back in place where it bonds securely without the need for stitches. After LASIK, some patients report a slight discomfort that usually goes away within twelve to twenty-four hours.

How it Works

LASIK / Nearsightedness

To treat near sightedness, the cornea must be made flatter. This is accomplishedby removing tissue from the center of the cornea.

LASIK / Farsightedness

To treat farsightedness, the central cornea must be made steeper. This is accomplished by directing the laser beam to remove tissue from around this area.

LASIK / Astigmatism

To treat astigmatism, the cornea must be made more sperical. By changing the pattern of the beam, tissue is removed in one direction more than the other.

Are You A Candidate For LASIK?

The Ideal Candidate

In general, the ideal candidate for LASIK is over 18 years of age and has healthy corneas. Candidates must not have had a significant increase in their prescription in the last 12 months. People with certain medical conditions or women who are pregnant may not be good candidates for LASIK.

Realistic Expectations

The decision to have LASIK is an important one that ultimately, only you can make. It is important that you have realistic expectations and that your decision is based on facts, not hopes or misconceptions. The goal of LASIK is to reduce your dependence on corrective lenses. LASIK does not always create 6/6 vision. It can not correct a condition known as presbyopia, or aging of the eye. This normally occurs around age 40 and may require the use of reading glasses. Your doctor will provide you with additional information that will allow you to make an informed decision.

In The Blink Of An Eye

It takes only seconds to treat a lifetime of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. Find out if you are a candidate for this life changing procedure by calling your eye doctor to schedule a personal consultation. Should your vision fall within the range of correction for LASIK, more comprehensive tests may be necessary.
