Overview
Vision correction surgery, also known as refractive or laser eye surgery, is related to any surgical procedure used to repair vision problems. Refractive and laser eye surgery allow many patients to see better than ever.
For those individuals with high degrees of myopia but cannot have laser correction or are too young for cataract surgery, informed consent, when applicable, will be given for phakic lens implantation, a surgery in which a special intraocular lens is added inside the eye to get rid of thick glasses or longstanding contact lens wear.
Who should consider the Refractive Laser Vision Unit visit?
People who suffer from vision problems or refractive errors benefit from visiting Aman refractive laser unit. There are four types of refractive errors that we treat including Nearsightedness, Farsightedness, Astigmatism, and Presbyopia.
Vision correction surgery is the common procedure used to correct various vision problems. The goal of refractive procedures is to either reduce or end the need for glasses or contacts.
