Laser eye surgery can be performed on patients over 18 years, as eye growth and development concludes by that age. Eligibility is always determined by a specialist who takes a number of factors into account in the decision: the stability of the eye, the patient’s age, the dioptre, and other eye-related aspects.

We perform traditional PRK treatments, no-touch PRK treatments; furthermore, premium-category FEMTO-LASIK, Femto-LASIK HD, as well as Femto-LASIK HD + Presbymax and SmartSight treatments are also available at our clinic. In addition, we offer Corneal Cross Linking treatment, the only therapeutic option developed specifically for keratoconus, which slows down and stops disease progression without causing any side effects.

PRK treatment (photorefractive keratectomy) is the oldest technology still in use. In PRK, the ophtahlmologist removes the corneal surface cells, and then uses the laser to alter the corneal tissue. This changes the eye’s dioptre.

In Femto-LASIK surgeries, the surface cells are not removed; instead, only a small incision is made on the corneal surface, which allows the corrective laser to access the corneal tissue.

You will first have to make an appointment for the assessment of eligibility, where our specialists will perform the necessary examinations. After all relevant factors are taken into account, we provide you with a decision as to whether we recommend laser eye surgery for you or not. If yes, we can set up an appointment for the surgery.

For PRK treatments, the surgery consists of the following steps:

1. For the sake of safety, we repeat the key part of the eligibility assessment.
2. We administer eye drops to numb your eyes and a tranquillizer is also available if necessary.
3. The ophthalmologist places a gentle eye speculum on your eye so you won’t have to worry about blinking during the procedure.
4. This is followed by the removal of the surface cornea cells by the ophthalmologist using a device specifically developed for this purpose.
5. Subsequently, the laser surgery of the corneal tissue takes place, which lasts only a couple of seconds per eye, depending on the dioptre.
6. After surgery, you need to wear the 100%-UV-filter sunglasses that you bring with you to the clinic, and you need to apply the eye drops we provide for you – these will support the healing of your eyes.
7. You spend approximately two hours at the clinic, but the treatment itself does not last longer than 8 to 10 minutes.
8. You will experience vision improvement immediately after the laser eye-correction surgery; you will not have to wear glasses any more, but you still need a couple of days to achieve stable visual acuity.

For Femto-LASIK treatments, the surgery consists of the following steps:

1. For the sake of safety, we repeat the key part of the eligibility assessment.
2. We administer eye drops to numb your eyes and a tranquillizer is also available if necessary.
3. The ophthalmologist places a gentle eye speculum on your eye so you won’t have to worry about blinking during the procedure.
4. Afterwards, the ophthalmologist uses the laser to make an incision in the corneal surface and performs eye corrective surgery similar to the PRK treatment.
5. No pain or significant discomfort should be expected during treatment.

There are only a few things you have to take into consideration regarding laser eye surgery:

• We request you not to wear make-up or false eyelashes.
• If you have been using contact lenses, you must stop using them 2 weeks prior to surgery (if they are soft lenses) or 3 weeks prior to surgery (if they are hard or semi-hard lenses). It is important because contact lenses exert a mild pressure on the cornea, changing its curve, and the cornea needs some time to regain its original shape. If you do not allow the required time for this process, the laser surgery may not give you the expected results.
• Please refrain from using highly-perfumed cosmetics (perfumes, deodorants, aftershave cosmetics) or eye make-up on the day of the surgery. These fragrances may affect the efficiency of the procedure or damage the optical parts of the laser instrument; furthermore, eye make-up may irritate or contaminate the surgical area.

You can continue doing everything else as you normally would: you can eat and drink before the surgery, and you can also administer any medication you regularly take. After surgery, it is important that you leave the clinic with someone to accompany you, and that you wear 100%-UV-filter sunglasses.

No, neither the assessment nor the laser eye surgery causes any pain. We provide patients with numbing eye drops before the surgery to ensure the process is entirely painless.

After a PRK surgery, recovery may take longer, and we recommend about 7 to 10 days of rest.

The recovery period after Femto-LASIK surgeries is 2 to 3 days.

It is important to remember that the laser vision correction process does not end with the surgery. Aftercare is very important, which extends to the following:

• use the eye drops provided by the ophthalmologist;
• wear UV-filter sunglasses for 3 to 6 months after the surgery when you are outdoors,
• return to the clinic for follow-up visits;
• keep away from dusty environments and other sources of potential infection (such as swimming pool water, bath water and objects contaminated with dirt) in the first weeks after the surgery;
• you must not rub your eyes for 3 months after the surgery as that would cause flap dislocation potentially resulting in micro-wrinkles and vision impairment. We strongly recommend to use the protective glasses received after surgery during the first week to prevent flap dislocation.
  Planned pregnancies should be timed for at least 3 months after the surgery.
