Eye Laser

Femto-LASIK is the most frequently performed laser treatment and life-style surgery with the highest human satisfaction. Under local anesthesia, the Femto-LASER is first used to prepare a thin flap (0.1 mm thick) on the surface of the cornea. This takes about 25 seconds. The eye is kept open with an eyelid retractor (you cannot close the eye).....

In trans-PRK (also called SmartSight), under local anesthesia and after an eyelid retractor holds the eye open, the correction is performed on the surface of the cornea without contact or incision. During this process, the epithelium (the cells of the corneal surface that are constantly regenerating) are also automatically removed by the LASER. Previously, these were removed manually by the surgeon (PRK method). Am...

Apart from LASER treatments, correction of refractive errors is also possible very precisely with the implantation of phakic lenses in the eye, in addition to the patient's own lens (phakic lenses). These treatments have been carried out for 30 years and have been performed several million times. The worldwide trend of implamtation is constantly increasing. Indications:- More severe refractive errors- Also for small corrections when...

The LASEK method (Laser Epithelial Keratomileusis) is a proven alternative to the LASIK method. First, the eyes are prepared for the treatment with anesthetic eye drops. Then, the top cell layer of the cornea (epithelium) is detached and removed. After the epithelium is removed, the corneal layer to be sculpted is exposed and the actual laser eye correction can begin. The corneal tissue is removed with the...
