How We Can Help the Laser Vision Correction Process
What Is Refractive Surgery?
Refractive surgery refers to procedures that correct common vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia. The goal is to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Refractive procedures include:
- LASIK – Laser-assisted reshaping of the cornea for clearer vision
- PRK – Surface-based laser correction, ideal for certain corneal shapes and lifestyles
- SMILE – Minimally invasive laser procedure with a small incision
- Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) – Lens-based correction for patients who are not ideal LASIK candidates or have early lens changes
- Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) – A lens implant option for high prescriptions or thinner corneas
