With LASIK Eye Surgery, (Laser-Assisted In-situ Keratomileusis) a flap is created on the front of your cornea before an excimer laser is used to remodel the cornea beneath, before re-positioning the flap.
LASEK (Laser-Assisted Sub-Epithelial Keratomileusis) is a procedure in which only the epithelial cells in the front of your cornea are loosened and moved to one side. Then, the excimer is applied to remodel your cornea. Following the laser ablation, the loosened epithelial cell layer is then re-positioned on the surface of your cornea.
The first type of laser eye surgery for vision correction, Transepithelial PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) surgery involves completely removing the front epithelial cell layer of your cornea with alcohol before excimer laser ablation. With the latest one stop Transepithelial epithelial treatment, it automatically removes the front epithelial cell layer before excimer laser ablation to give faster recovery.
The type of laser eye surgery for vision correction involves capturing the shape (topography) of your cornea and applying customized ablation to our cornea based on the shape of your cornea.
PTK (Phototherapeutic Keratectomy) involves completely removing the front epithelial cell layer of your cornea with the use of Excimer laser to regularize the corneal surface following corneal scarring, recurrent corneal erosions and surface irregularities.

A. We have moved on to the latest, more stronger and reliable technique of transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (Trans-PRK). Although the procedure is completely painfree, following the procedure individuals may experience a gritty sensation and light sensitivity and typically last 3-5 days. However, with the appropriate use of drops and oral pain relief, these sensations can be effectively managed. The overall vision recovery may take between 6-8 weeks.
A. Complications after laser eye surgery are rare, although, as with any medical procedure, there is always a potential for side effects. We engage in thorough discussions with our patients, outlining both the risks and benefits of treatment.
A. If laser vision correction is not suitable for you, we offer a diverse range of refractive surgery procedures. We will assess and discuss alternative solutions with you to determine the most appropriate treatment for your specific needs. For instance, if you have high corrections, implantable collamer lens surgery may be a more suitable option, refractive lens exchange may also be an option or if cataracts are present, cataract surgery might be recommended.
A. Laser eye surgery does not increase the risk of developing other eye conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, or macular degeneration. However, it’s important to consider the changes in corneal shape if cataract surgery is contemplated later in life. Keeping a record of your details before laser treatment is advisable, although modern scanning techniques can also provide relevant information.
A. The laser is applied to each eye for a matter of seconds, but the overall time spent in the treatment room is approximately 20 minutes. On the day of treatment, you can expect to be in the clinic for up to 2 hours, during which time you will interact members of the team and receive post-surgery medication information.
A. At our clinic the minimum age for laser eye surgery is 21 years, although, depending on your prescription and treatment plan, the actual age for eligibility may be older. As our eyes continue to change during growth, permanent correction is most effective when the prescription has stabilized. Younger eyes may carry a higher risk of future prescription changes due to ongoing development.
