Your Treatment Options
Laser eye surgery is tailored to your prescription and the structure of your eye. The goal is to improve clarity and reduce reliance on glasses or contact lenses.
Treatment options include:
LASIK
Removes the cloudy lens and replaces it with a clear artificial lens. This restores vision and improves clarity for everyday tasks.
LASEK or PRK
Surface treatments used where LASIK is not suitable. These are effective but involve a longer recovery period.
Wavefront-guided treatment
Uses detailed eye measurements to create a more personalised correction, improving overall visual quality.
Suitability depends on prescription stability, corneal thickness and eye health. This is assessed during your consultation.
Some patients may be better suited to lens-based procedures depending on age and long-term goals.
