Is Laser Vision Correction Surgery safe?
  • Your eye vision is sophisticated, sensitive, and
    important not for you but also your respective
    doctor. For almost 30-35 years (with the
    beginning of its invention in India), laser eye
    surgery has been one of the most common
    surgeries for people with any kind of eye
    problem. The procedure has been well-
    established and the different types like SMILE,
    LASIK, and ASLA have been extensively developed
    for the sake of the health of the human eye.
  • Because of the safety, complications, and
    possible risks involved, many people ask Is laser
    vision correction surgery safe? Eye correction
    surgery with laser light is also known as laser
    vision correction surgery. This surgery is done
    by eye surgeons to correct or improve the vision
    permanently.
  • What is Laser vision correction?
  • Laser vision correction (LVC) surgery helps
    correct refractive errors. Refractive error
    problems are caused by an imperfectly shaped
    cornea. LVC surgery is an alternative to
    spectacles and contact lenses that can help a
    patient to see clearly and far better.
  • Laser vision correction surgery is performed by
    using laser beam rays to reshape the cornea to
    adjust its focusing power.
  • These operations procedures are both safe and
    have a high success rate.
  • Although eye vision correction surgery sounds
    simple to perform, a lot of planned thought and
    customizations are needed to obtain satisfactory
    and positive results. Consult an Eye specialist
    in Chennai for vision correction surgery.
  • What is the refractive error of the eye?
  • Refractive errors occur in the eyes and cause
    visual impairment. In these circumstances, a
    patient is unable to focus on the images or
    objects, resulting in a blurred image. Generally,
    you have a refractive error when your eye does
    not refract (bend) light properly on your retina.
  • These are the 4 basic types of refractive errors
  • Nearsightedness (myopia) It is a common vision
    condition in which nearby objects appear sharp
    and distant objects appear blurred.
    Nearsightedness starts affecting your eyes at the
    age of 6 when the child starts watching TV or
    using various LED electric products. When you
    watch TV or use any other high frequency LED
    electronic product, your eyes become longer than
    normal from front to back, the primary reason
    for nearsightedness. In this case, the Images
    focus in front of the retina (or do not reach
    the retina).
  • Farsightedness (hyperopia) It is a common
    vision condition in which distant objects can be
    seen clearly, but nearby objects appear blurred.
    When you are affected by farsightedness, you may
    feel your eye shorter than normal the cornea as
    too flat.
  • Astigmatism It is a general treatable vision
    condition in which objects at any distance
    (Distant or Nearby) appear blurred. The cornea,
    lens, or both gets into the type of shape that
    doesnt allow the reflection or refraction of
    images directly or sharply on the retina.
  • Presbyopia or aging eye It is a refractive
    error that can be treated by wearing corrective
    eyeglasses. Presbyopia often occurs between ages
    40 and 50. It is an age-related vision condition
    when the eye loses its natural power, and ability
    to see objects (Distant or Nearby) or change
    focus flexibility because of the natural aging
    process. Refractive surgery cant correct this
    problem. It can make distance vision clearer. But
    it can make near vision worse.

  • Nearsightedness (Myopia)
  • Farsightedness (Hyperopia)
  • Astigmatism (blurring of vision due to the
    improper shape of the eye).
  • Before eye correction surgery, a complete
    preoperative assessment can decide whether the
    surgery is right for you and, if so, which laser
    vision correction technique is best.
  • There are 3 best techniques and approach options
    used by an eye specialist for laser vision
    correction,
  • including
  • Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK)
  • Laser-assisted stromal in situ keratomileuses
    (LASIK)
  • Small incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE)
  • Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) is the first
    generation or one of the first invented
    techniques under the category of laser vision
    correction This kind of refractive surgery uses
    laser beam rays to treat vision problems caused
    by refractive errors in your eyes. This procedure
    improves eye vision by using a laser ray and
    changing the shape of your cornea.
  • Surgery Result The effects of PRK surgery are
    permanent.
  • Success rate The success rate of PRK surgery is
    80 90 percent.
  • Risk and complication PRK laser eye surgery also
    has risks and complications. The possible risk
    and complications of PRK laser eye surgery
    include
  • o Discomfort
  • o Pain

  • laser to create a corneal lenticule which is
    extracted whole through a small incision without
    the use of an excimer laser.
  • Surgery Result The effect of SMILE surgery is
    permanent.
  • Success Rate The success rate of SMILE surgery
    is 85 95 percent.
  • Risk and complication SMILE laser eye surgery
    also has risks and complications. The possible
    risk and complications of SMILE laser eye surgery
    include
  • Night vision issues
  • Infection
  • Dry eyes
  • Inflammation
  • Clouded vision
  • Doble vision
  • Corneal bulging
  • Blindness
  • Miscorrection can lead to a separate or repeated
    procedure for the eye problems
  • Is laser vision correction surgery safe? What are
    the possible benefits of laser vision correction
    surgery?
  • The main benefits of laser vision correction
    surgery include
  • Immediate improvement in eye vision Laser
    vision correction surgery helps you see clearly
    after a few-week recovery procedures.
