LASIK Laser Vision Correction

Lasik Laser Vision Correction

Lasik is the world’s most commonly performed laser vision correction procedure

Ultra-Thin LASIK laser eye surgery

LASIK (Laser Assisted In-situ Keratomileusis) is a popular laser vision correction procedure for myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, as well as presbyopia.

LASIK may correct vision for people who are nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism.

The first of two lasers used in LASIK laser eye surgery creates a thin flap of tissue on your cornea, the clear front of your eye. A painless second laser is then applied under this flap to change the focus of your eye. The flap is then safely replaced. No stitches, glues or contact lenses are required.

Laser Vision SA was the first in Adelaide to perform All Laser LASIK. With the ONLY Zeiss Visumax 800 in South Australia we are able to offer the fastest most comfortable LASIK flap creation with the easiest flap lift. We are also able to offer thinner (80 micron) LASIK flaps which means less of your corneal thickness is involved in the LASIK procedure.

Now we are performing Ultra-Thin Flap LASIK to create an extremely thin and precise 0.080 mm LASIK corneal flap. This procedure is less invasive than previously, leading to potentially stronger corneas and less risk of dry eye.

LASIK speeds the recovery of vision after laser eye surgery compared with PRK or surface laser, allowing you to return to your normal activities faster. Compared with PRK it may also result in less discomfort, as the surface of your eye (corneal epithelium) is preserved.

The dimensions and thickness of the corneal flap are critical to a successful procedure. VisuMax delivers micron-level accuracy that is 100 percent greater than the hand-held blade. This allows us to tailor the shape and depth of the corneal flap for each individual eye. Many people with thin, flat or irregular-shaped corneas are now suitable for laser vision correction.

All laser LASIK may allow the corneal flap to bond snuggly back into the surface of the eye with greater strength. Greater precision and faster healing may increase the safety factor for any eye surgeons compared with the hand-held oscillating blade.

All laser LASIK laser eye surgery at Laser Vision SA was a first for Adelaide. It is the preferred choice for thousands of patients around the world being silent and gentler on the eye than a hand-held oscillating blade. As the most advanced technology for laser vision correction all laser LASIK with over VISUMAX laser gives you greater confidence and assurance for outstanding results.
