6 surgeries to get rid of eye problems
2
Intraocular Lens (IOL) Implant

• If you're moderately to severely nearsighted, an
  option could also be a lens (IOL) implant.
• Phakic IOLs are clear implantable lenses that a
  surgeon places either between your cornea and
  iris or simply behind the iris, without removing
  your natural lens.
• To correct nearsightedeness, phakic lenses work
  like contact lenses.
• This surgery is available at Arogyam eye clinic
  in bhandup.

Laser-Assisted In-Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK)

• LASIK is that the hottest and most ordinarily
  performed refractive surgery. This is performed
  by laser eye surgeon in Bhandup.
• During LASIK surgery, the ophthalmologist makes a
  skinny, circular hinged cut in your cornea,
  creating a flap.
• Then the he or she uses a kind of laser that does
  not produce heat (called an excimer laser) to get
  rid of layers from the middle of your cornea to
  flatten its domed shape if you're nearsighted,
  steepen the dome if you're farsighted or smooth
  the dome for astigmatism.
• Several variations of LASIK eye surgery in
  Bhandup are available, and therefore the
  procedure usually takes about quarter-hour for
  both eyes.

Laser-Assisted Sub Epithelial Keratomileusis
(LASEK)

• LASEK differs from LASIK therein the surgeon
  doesn't create a flap within the cornea itself
  but only within the cornea's thin protective
  covering called the epithelium.
• Subsequent step is that the same laser procedure
  utilized in LASIK to flatten or steepen the
  curves of the cornea.
• After repositioning the epithelial flap the
  surgeon finishes the surgery.
• Youll wear a bandage contact for several days
  after the procedure to encourage healing. The
  procedure takes about 10 minutes for every eye.

5
Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK)

• PRK was the primary sort of surgery developed to
  correct refractive errors.
• This surgery remains common, though not as
  popular as LASIK, partly because PRK features a
  longer recovery time.
• In PRK, the surgeon completely removes the
  epithelium, which can grow back and conform to
  the new shape of your cornea.
• Otherwise, the procedure, including the value, is
  analogous to LASIK and LASEK. This surgery is
  performed by eye specialist doctor in Bhandup in
  very well equipped, neat and clean clinic.
