Laser vision correction with 1. Excimer laser vision correction (Lasik). Methods of laser vision correction

What is laser correction

Laser vision correction is a surgical operation. Its method is based on changing the shape of the cornea and correcting refractive errors in the eye. Due to this, the image on the retina begins to focus as it should. This saves patients from using lenses or glasses.

Who conducts

In Moscow, laser vision correction is carried out in special microsurgical eye hospitals. Operations are carried out under the supervision of ophthalmologists and microsurgeons. The price for laser vision correction will depend on the level of the clinic and the method of performing the procedure. Modern devices and a high level of security have made the operation accessible and simple.

Indications

Vision correction is performed for the following diseases:
  • farsightedness;
  • myopia;
  • astigmatism;
  • presbyopia.

Types of correction

Modern installations make it possible to correct almost all degrees and types of visual impairment. Today in medical practice, the following methods of correction are used.
Photorefractive keratectomy is a non-contact effect of an excimer laser on the shallow layers of the cornea, while not affecting other structures of the eye.
Laser keratomileusis - during the procedure, a corneal flap is formed, which can be folded back. After that, the cornea is vaporized with a laser and made it more convex or flatter, depending on the disease. Then the flap is returned to its place.
FLEx method - it uses only a femtosecond laser, which makes the operation safer and more efficient.
Femtolazik - the effect on the cornea is more gentle than with the simple lasik method, this allows operations to be performed on those patients who were previously denied due to contraindications: a high degree of myopia or a thin cornea.

How is the correction

The procedure takes place under local anesthesia, while the laser process lasts only a few seconds. The patient does not experience any pain during the operation. It is important to just lie down and look at the red dot, trying not to look away. A couple of hours after the procedure, you can already go home.
For the first few weeks, it is advisable to limit visual activity, do not sleep on the side of the operated eye, avoid getting water and soap into the eye, and also use sunglasses.

Hello. I thought about the correction for a long time, and when I was already determined, I found an advertisement and went for an all-inclusive correction. I did the operation on Saturday morning, and now everything is fully visible, I am writing a review at work. The procedure itself is almost painless, it went quickly . I didn't worry at all and the results are great. I see everything) It’s unusual to look so good so far) There is no discomfort, I drip a drop, I don’t climb into my eyes) Kl

Inika is good, clean, beautiful, the staff is pleasant and attentive. I recommend taking a closer look.

So the time has come to sum up some intermediate results of laser correction using the Femto Super LASIK method. A month has passed since the operation, this week I have already returned to training (karate, gym). The operation itself went very quickly and without much excitement, the recovery period is a more interesting and difficult moment, but, as it turns out, many problems are more likely from excessive experience. At the beginning of the eye, on which b


Valeria Lust

Thank you with a capital "S"! Morozova Larisa Alexandrovna is a wonderful doctor! I didn't have a second doubt that everything would be fine. The vision is perfect. Nothing hurt or hurt.

There was significant astigmatism, getting used to the new vision and acuity ranged from 0.7 to 1.0. One was regularly observed on the right. On the control after a month, both eyes were 1.0, two eyes - 1.2! One of the possible consequences that I experienced in absentia before the operation was dry eye syndrome, I sit at the computer for days, and it was a big risk - to get (and possibly for a long time) great discomfort when working at the computer. But, to my surprise, working at the computer has become much more comfortable, I don’t even use moisturizing drops. I attribute this to the fact that my eyes began to look calmly, without tension, at the end of the working day with glasses, my eyes constantly itched terribly, but now I completely forgot about it, which really surprised me, I hoped at least what was before the operation. And for all this, as well as for the great attention and high-quality approach to my work, I want to thank the entire team of the 3Z clinic, and, of course, personally the doctor Otkhozory Damiri Dzhemalievich!!! I have never seen so clearly (neither with glasses nor lenses) and it has never been so calm for my eyes! THANK YOU! You can’t even remember about the glasses in the photo already =)

Laser vision correction(LKZ) allows you to fully restore vision with myopia, farsightedness and astigmatism.

The speed of the procedure, the absence of pain, the stability of the results (in the absence of progressive myopia) make such an operation popular.

Recovery time after PRK

Discomfort after PRK procedure goes away on the third or fourth day.

The patient receives 70% planned result, in a month - 90%, and only during the next 5-6 months (sometimes 6-12) After the operation, vision is completely restored.

After LASIK

Already after 2-3 hours After LASIK surgery, the patient begins to see well. Vision is gradually restored in 24-48 hours. The final result is achieved within 1-3 months.


When one eye sees worse than the other after laser correction

This phenomenon occurs quite often, especially if before surgery there was difference in diopter between the two eyes. Moreover, visual acuity can change significantly several times during the day. This phenomenon can last up to half a year after operation.

  1. Preservation postoperative edema that pass over time.
  2. Spasm of the eye muscles in this case, the doctor may recommend doing simple eye exercises.
  3. Preservation residual myopia due to insufficient correction (hypocorrection).

    In this case, it is possible to perform a second operation no earlier than after 1-2 months. It is after this time that it becomes clear whether the cause of visual impairment is spasm of accommodation(a temporary phenomenon due to excessive visual load) or has occurred regression myopia.

  4. Hypercorrection- overcorrection. An additional operation is required.
  5. Displacement or loss of a corneal flap(either the surgeon placed it unevenly, or the patient displaced it while rubbing the eye). Possible only after LASIK surgery. It is eliminated by suturing or reoperation.
  6. Keratitis(inflammation of the cornea) due to trauma and the addition of a bacterial infection.

Important! After correction of high myopia (over 6 diopters) likely over time regression of myopia (deterioration of vision by 1-2 diopters).

Why vision is blurry

A hazy, blurry image is often seen in patients within 72 hours after surgery.

    Clouding of the cornea due to slow recovery of damaged cells(common after PRK surgery).

    As a treatment, the doctor prescribes eye drops that protect the damaged cornea, eliminate swelling and have an anti-inflammatory effect.

  1. A hazy image may be due to dry eye syndrome when a tear does not wash the eyelid enough. When using special drops, it disappears in one to two weeks.
  2. Inflammation of the cornea (keratitis) due to bacterial infection.

What to do if the patient does not see well

Postoperative symptoms requiring immediate medical attention:

  • severe prolonged pain, especially in 24 hours after operation;
  • Availability inflammatory process(preservation of severe swelling, redness, "sand" in the eyes) for a long time after surgery;
  • bright flashes of light;
  • sudden vision loss.

Attention! During, as a rule, months after vision correction, the ophthalmologist consults his patients free of charge.
