LASIK Eye Surgery in India

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a refractive eye surgery designed to correct vision problems such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. The procedure reshapes the cornea using a laser to reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses.

India offers advanced LASIK technology, skilled ophthalmologists, and state-of-the-art eye care facilities for safe and precise vision correction.

Indications for LASIK

  • Myopia (nearsightedness)

  • Hyperopia (farsightedness)

  • Astigmatism (irregular curvature of the cornea)

  • Desire to reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses

  • Stable vision prescription for at least 1 year

Procedure Overview

  1. Pre-operative Assessment
