LASIK Surgery
LASIK reshapes the cornea using excimer laser technology to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Our blade-free femtosecond laser creates precise corneal flaps, minimizing dry eye risks. Patients typically achieve 20/20 vision within 24 hours, with rapid recovery and long-lasting results. The procedure takes 10-15 minutes per eye with immediate visual improvement.
SMILE Procedure
SMILE corrects myopia and astigmatism through a 4mm incision without flap creation. Using VisuMax femtosecond laser technology, we remove corneal tissue lenticules while preserving nerve integrity. Patients experience reduced dry eye symptoms and faster recovery compared to traditional LASIK, with most resuming normal activities within 3 days.
Cataract Surgery
Our laser-assisted cataract surgery removes clouded lenses and implants premium intraocular lenses (IOLs) like PanOptix trifocal or toric models. With ORA wavefront technology, we achieve precise alignment for astigmatism correction. Patients report clearer vision within hours, with full recovery in 4-6 weeks and reduced dependency on glasses.
Dry Eye Treatment
We address lipid-deficient dry eye using LipiFlow thermal pulsation and intense pulsed light therapy. These treatments unblock meibomian glands to restore natural tear production. Patients experience symptom relief within weeks, with improved ocular surface health and reduced reliance on artificial tears through personalized management plans.
Oculoplastic Surgery
Our specialists perform eyelid reconstruction, blepharoplasty, and orbital fracture repair to restore function and aesthetics. Cosmetic treatments include BOTOX Cosmetic and filler injections for periorbital rejuvenation. Procedures address both congenital defects and age-related changes, improving visual field and facial symmetry with natural-looking results.
