Refractive surgery is a vision correction procedure designed to reduce or eliminate dependency on glasses and contact lenses. At Yashoda Nethralaya, we offer advanced surgical techniques, including LASIK, SMILE, PRK, and ICL implantation, to provide clear and long-lasting vision correction.

Types of Refractive Surgery

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis)

• One of the most popular vision correction procedures.

• A thin flap is created on the cornea, and a laser reshapes the underlying tissue to correct refractive errors.

• Quick recovery, with most patients seeing clearly within 24 hours.

SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction)

• Minimally invasive and flapless laser procedure.

• Uses a femtosecond laser to remove a small piece of corneal tissue, correcting myopia and astigmatism.

• Faster healing with minimal dry eye symptoms.

PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy)

• No corneal flap is created; instead, the laser reshapes the cornea’s surface.

• Ideal for patients with thin corneas or those unsuitable for LASIK.

• Slightly longer recovery time but excellent long-term results.

ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) Implantation

• A biocompatible lens is implanted inside the eye without altering the cornea.

• Suitable for high refractive errors or those with thin corneas.

• Reversible and provides sharp, high-definition vision.

Who Can Benefit from Refractive Surgery?

• Individuals with myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), or astigmatism.

• Those seeking a permanent alternative to glasses or contact lenses.

• Patients with stable vision prescription for at least a year.
