LASIK eye surgery is a type of laser eye surgery that is used to correct the vision problems like farsightedness [hypermetropia], nearsightedness [myopia], blurry vision, and astigmatism. The full form of LASIK is Laser in Situ Keratomileusis. Undergoing LASIK surgery can help you to avoid wearing eyeglasses and contact lenses. Nowadays, several people tend to undergo LASIK eye surgery because of its benefits and minimal or no risks.
LASIK Eye Surgery
During the initial visit, the Eye Specialist or Ophthalmologist will ask you to describe the symptoms. To carry out a thorough diagnosis the doctor may carry out certain tests including:
Based on the readings of your tests, the doctor will begin the treatment after identifying you as an eligible candidate for the procedure. The procedure for correcting refractive errors will include the following steps:
The treatment takes around 30 minutes, out of which, the preparation takes about 20 minutes and the surgery takes only about 10 minutes. Therefore, you can go back home on the same day itself.

Yes. The results of a LASIK surgery can last for a long period of 10-20 years and in certain cases, they may even last for a lifetime. However, the longevity of the treatment depends on multiple factors, such as age, overall health and medical condition of the patient. This also largely depends on the amount of attention that the patient pays to their eye health.
Yes. You can watch TV once you take a nap after undergoing a LASIK eye surgery. However, there are chances that the digital screens may cause irritation in your eyes. Therefore, it would be beneficial for you if you wait for a few days before watching TV or using other digital devices like phones, tabs, or computers after undergoing a LASIK surgery.
LASIK surgery is performed in a day-care procedure. Hence, you will be able to return to performing all the basic daily activities on the same day itself. However, the doctor will advise you to take proper rest for the first few days, since it would take you around 2-4 weeks to completely heal from the procedure.
The cost of a LASIK eye surgery may range anywhere between Rs 30,000 to Rs 1,00,000. However, this cost should not be considered as an absolute and the range is provided just to give you a brief idea.
The cost of a LASIK surgery in Jaipur can vary depending on multiple factors such as:
No, LASIK is not a painful procedure. Since the surgery will be performed after administration of anesthesia, it is very unlikely for you to feel pain. However, there might be a little bit of discomfort. During the entire procedure, the laser beam is actually controlled by a computerized machine. And, it shuts down on its own, as soon as it senses any eye movements. This ensures that no components of the eye are damaged during the procedure.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, you should consider visiting an eye specialist without making any further delays:
No. Everyone cannot undergo a LASIK surgery. Only the eye specialist can confirm if you are a good candidate after a thorough evaluation of the eyes. An individual may not be considered as an ideal candidate for undergoing a LASIK surgery for the following reasons:
Yes. Laser vision correction procedures, such as Bladeless Femto LASIK, Bladeless and Flapless ReLEx Smile LASIK, and other advanced innovations have made the surgery safer, faster, and precise.
Femto LASIK, also known as femtosecond-assisted LASIK, is a type of laser eye surgery. It allows the surgeons to create a corneal flap with the laser rather than using a mechanical cutting tool. After surgery, the flap is placed back in its original position without sutures.
The common side effects of LASIK eye surgery are:
While the conventional LASIK surgery maps about 200 points in the cornea, the Contoura LASIK maps around 22,000 points on the cornea for more accuracy. Contoura LASIK also has fewer complications as compared to the conventional technique and the damage to the tissues is relatively less.
The key difference between PRK and LASIK is the creation of a flap in the cornea. While LASIK surgery requires a thin flap to reshape the cornea, PRK removes the outer layer of the cornea completely. In both scenarios, the flap grows back over time.
No. LASIK eye surgery is not painful at all. Before the procedure, the surgeon will place numbing eye drops in both your eyes and only proceed when the solution takes effect. You may still feel slight pressure during the surgery, but there will be no pain.
LASIK surgery can cause dryness, flap problems, regression of the vision, and sudden vision changes/loss. However, these are temporary side effects of LASIK. The chances of LASIK permanently damaging your eyes or affecting the vision are rare.
Though LASIK surgery can be performed at any age group, doctors often recommend that the ideal age range for LASIK is between 25 to 40 years. This is because the eyeglasses and contact lens prescriptions usually stabilize by the age of 25. And a stable prescription is the eligibility criteria for a LASIK candidate.

LASIK is a long-lasting solution for blurry vision or refractive errors. It reshapes the cornea to reduce the eye power and gives a long-lasting effect. However, LASIK cannot prevent further changes in the cornea. You may notice minor changes in vision in the future due to your new eye power.
There is no doubt that LASIK surgery is good for the eyes as it helps to restore vision problems effectively. It is a minimally invasive treatment that takes around 15-20 minutes and gives around 10 years of freedom from spectacles and contact lenses.
Yes. LASIK completely eliminates the dependence on eyeglasses or contact lenses through a simple and minimally invasive procedure.
The success rate, as well as the patient satisfaction rate of LASIK vision correction, is higher than 96%. It can help the patients to achieve 20/20 vision in most cases with minimal complications.
Almost all major health insurance companies provide ample coverage for vision correction, specifically LASIK eye surgery. The companies are:
Yes. The corneal thickness test is a very important test to determine the suitability of the person to undergo LASIK surgery. It is because the surgeon has to remove the corneal tissues to reshape the cornea and correct the refractive errors. If there are not sufficient corneal tissues, you won’t be eligible for LASIK operation.
Among all the other eye care centres in Jaipur, Pristyn Care has stood out as one of the best eye care centres for the following reasons:
LASIK surgery is not advised to a patient if they have any of the following:
In all these situations, the eye specialist will recommend an alternative treatment method to correct vision problems.
LASIK treatment has become a popular way to restore clear vision in patients over the years. This is because it has many aspects that are beneficial for the patients. The key benefits of the LASIK eye treatment are:
Due to all these advantages, people are becoming more inclined to LASIK and other latest forms of vision correction too.
As there are different types of LASIK eye surgery available, patients often have a hard time determining which laser procedure is the best for the eyes. LASIK itself is a type of refractive surgery that is performed with the help of a laser. People have heard many names for LASIK, such as Femto LASIK, Contoura LASIK, Smile, etc.
However, you should understand that the primary difference between these types of surgeries is the type of laser used. It is either an excimer laser or a femtosecond laser that is used to carry out the procedure or the technique is slightly different.
But there are many other types of refractive surgeries that can help a person to correct vision problems. These different types of vision correction procedures are:
Other than these techniques, there are other laser-based procedures that can correct refractive errors and treat other eye disorders like cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, etc.
You should understand that undergoing LASIK surgery is not enough to get the desired results and correct all the vision problems effectively. The most crucial thing is the recovery period. In the first few days, your eyes will itch, feel gritty, burn, or become watery. Your vision may also take 24-48 hours to stabilize. And the corneal flap will take even longer to heal completely.
The complete recovery time after LASIK is around one month during which you’ll have to take many precautions and follow the doctor’s advice strictly. If you don’t follow the doctor’s instructions, there is a possibility that your final outcome of LASIK won’t be exactly what you hoped for.
Here are some common post-surgery care tips that will help you to recover quickly and get the best results from LASIK:
