Are You Considering LASIK Eye Surgery?

If you’re considering laser eye surgery in Perth, you may have heard of the term ‘LASIK’. LASIK stands for Laser Insitu Keratomileusis, and this is a type of common refractive surgery or laser eye surgery aimed to correct refractive errors.

A refractive error is where the eye fails to bend light effectively, resulting in blurred vision and other eye related issues including short sightedness, long sightedness, age-related loss of near vision and astigmatism.

In simple terms, our Perth LASIK surgery in Perth, works by removing tissue from underneath a flap in the cornea in order to change the curvature and ultimately the focus of the eye. Unlike mechanical instruments, laser technology is uniquely able to program the dimensions of your corneal flap based on what’s best for your eye. The Femtosecond laser will then create your flap from below the surface of the cornea—without ever cutting it.

Like many other surgical procedures, there are some associated risks with the LASIK eye surgery we offer at our Perth clinic. Please speak to our staff or principal surgeon Dr Robert Paul about any concerns you may have. Despite the risks of eye surgery, there are many advantages of choosing to undergo LASIK eye surgery including:

  • No scarring
  • 100% blade free
  • Fast visual recovery period
  • Ability to have both eyes treated at the same time
  • Improved and enhanced vision without glasses or lenses

Our LASIK Eye Surgery Steps

LASIK eye surgery is well known for its short recovery period and effectiveness on patients who suffer from a range of conditions including short-sightedness and blurry vision. Learn about the steps for the LASIK eye surgery performed at our Perth clinic below.

  1. Ultra–fast pulses of laser light position microscopic bubbles at a precise depth determined by your doctor.
  2. The laser light passes harmlessly through your cornea, creating rows of these bubbles just beneath your corneal surface as it moves back and forth across your eye.
  3. Next, the laser stacks bubbles around your corneal diameter to create the edges of your flap. These bubbles are stacked at an angle that is determined by your doctor and is individualised to the way your eye is shaped.
  4. The process in total takes about 6 seconds from start to finish.
  5. Your Perth doctor will then gently lift the flap to allow for the second step of your LASIK treatment. This is where the Excimer laser is applied, smoothly reshaping the cornea and correcting the refractive error. When treatment is complete, the flap easily “locks” back into position and rapidly begins to heal.
