LASIK Eye Surgery
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 Eye Surgery
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.
Transepithelial PRK Surgery
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.
Topography Guided PRK/LASEK Surgery
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)
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.

Frequently Asked Questions for Laser Refractive Eye Surgery
Q1. What is laser refractive eye surgery, and how does it work?
A. Laser refractive eye surgery is a vision correction procedure aimed at addressing issues like nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. It involves using an excimer to reshape the cornea, the transparent front part of the eye. This reshaping corrects the way light enters the eye, improving vision without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Q2. What are the different types of laser eye surgery available?
A. We offer several types of laser eye surgeries, including:
- LASIK (Laser-Assisted In-situ Keratomileusis)
- LASEK (Laser-Assisted Sub-Epithelial Keratomileusis)
- Transepithelial PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy)
- Topography Guided PRK/LASEK
- PTK (Phototherapeutic Keratectomy)
Transepithelial treatment is the latest and most advanced for vision correction.
Q3. How is LASIK different from LASEK and PRK?
A. LASIK involves creating a flap on the front of the cornea before reshaping it with an excimer laser. LASEK, on the other hand, loosens and moves the front corneal cells aside for laser treatment. PRK removes the front corneal cells entirely before laser ablation. Both LASEK and PRK involved loosening the front lining (epithelium) of the cornea with diluted alcohol. Whereas transepithelial PRK is the latest no touch technique where the laser performs the removal of the front lining (epithelium) of the cornea and the treatment simultaneously. Each method has its advantages and considerations, which your eye surgeon will discuss with you based on your individual needs.
Q4. What is Topography Guided PRK/LASEK surgery, and who is it suitable for?
A. Topography Guided PRK/LASEK is a personalized laser eye surgery that uses detailed corneal mapping to guide the laser ablation. This technique is particularly beneficial for individuals with complex vision issues and irregular corneal shapes. It allows for a highly customized treatment approach, potentially achieving better visual outcomes in challenging cases.
Q5. What conditions or issues can be treated with PTK (Phototherapeutic Keratectomy) eye surgery?
A. PTK (Phototherapeutic Keratectomy) eye surgery is primarily used to address corneal surface irregularities, scarring, calcium deposition (bank keratopathy) and recurrent corneal erosions. It involves the precise removal of the front epithelial cell layer of the cornea using an Excimer laser. This procedure helps to smooth out the corneal surface and improve visual clarity in cases where these issues are present.
Q6. How much does laser refractive eye surgery cost?
A. The cost varies based on the type of treatment and the specific needs of each patient. Here is an approximate pricing breakdown:
- Consultation price including scans: £350*
- Wavefront Optimized treatment: From £2450/eye
- Complex prescription treatment: From £2950/eye
- Phototherapeutic Keratectomy (PTK): From £1950/eye
*Consultation cost is chargeable only if the candidate decides not to proceed with the surgery.
