Refractive Surgery

Introduction

Refractive errors, such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism, can significantly impact the quality of life, necessitating the use of glasses or contact lenses. At i Care Delhi Center, we offer advanced refractive surgery options designed to correct these vision issues and provide a life free from corrective eyewear. Our state-of-the-art techniques and personalized care ensure the best outcomes for our patients. 

Understanding Refractive Surgery

Refractive surgery encompasses a variety of surgical procedures aimed at correcting vision by altering the shape of the cornea or implanting corrective lenses. The goal is to enable light entering the eye to focus properly on the retina, resulting in clear vision. Common types of refractive surgeries include LASIK, PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy), LASEK (Laser-Assisted Sub-Epithelial Keratectomy), and lens-based procedures like RLE (Refractive Lens Exchange).

Lasik Laser

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a popular and effective laser eye surgery designed to correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, significantly reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. The procedure involves creating a thin flap in the cornea, which is then lifted to allow an excimer laser to reshape the underlying corneal tissue. This precise reshaping improves the eye’s focusing ability, resulting in clearer vision. LASIK offers quick recovery times, minimal discomfort, and rapid improvement in vision, making it a highly sought-after solution for those seeking freedom from corrective eyewear.

The Refractive Surgery Procedure

The process of undergoing refractive surgery at i Care Delhi Center is designed to be seamless and comfortable:

1. Initial Consultation: A thorough eye examination is conducted to determine the most suitable refractive surgery option. This includes measuring corneal thickness, mapping the cornea, and assessing overall eye health.

2. Customized Treatment Plan: Based on the examination results, a personalized treatment plan is developed to address the specific refractive error and individual needs of the patient.

3. Surgery Day: On the day of the surgery, local anesthesia in the form of numbing eye drops is administered to ensure a pain-free experience. The surgery itself is quick, typically lasting 10-15 minutes per eye.

4. Post-operative Care: Patients are provided with detailed post-operative care instructions, including the use of prescribed eye drops to prevent infection and promote healing. Follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor progress and ensure optimal recovery.

Post-Surgery Expectations

Recovery from refractive surgery varies depending on the procedure, but patients can generally expect the following:

  • Immediate Improvement: Most patients experience a noticeable improvement in vision within the first few days, with full stabilization occurring over a few weeks to months.
  • Temporary Discomfort: Mild discomfort, dryness, or a gritty sensation in the eyes is common and can be managed with prescribed eye drops.
  • Activity Restrictions: Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities and protect the eyes from potential injury during the initial recovery period.
