FemtoLASIK is one of the most effective and advanced computer-controlled technologies in refractive surgery. FemtoLASIK is a form of LASIK used to correct vision problems including nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism by way of deploying a laser on the cornea.
The older traditional LASIK uses a blade to create an opening on the corneal surface and uses lasers to reshape the lens in the eye. Whereas FemtoLASIK, also known as bladeless LASIK or all-laser LASIK does not use the blade. Instead it substitutes blade for a femtosecond laser and uses an excimer laser to correct the refractive conditions. This highly precise new technology with FemtoLASIK eliminates possible complications caused by blade and promises a higher level of safety as well as a faster recovery.
The high precision and safety of the FemtoLASIK enables the patients to experience less postoperative side effects, such as halos around lights, dry eyes, corneal abrasion and eye irritations. Patients can rest assured that refractive surgery will be safely conducted with the most possible effective outcomes along with patient satisfaction and quick recovery.
