With evolving times, lasik surgeries in India has seen umpteen advancements & progress. They have proved to enhance the vision of millions by reducing the need for corrective eyewear to see clearly. Contoura Vision Eye Surgery is another leap in Lasik Surgery aiding your eye surgeons in creating a customised lasik procedure to improve the quality of your eyesight.

Contoura Vision is the latest FDA approved lasik procedure which optimally reduces the corneal irregularities of your eyes.

As per the clinical studies, Contoura Vision Eye Surgery has helped 30% of the patients achieve better than 6/6 vision (an ability to see at 6 metres what an average person can see at 6 metres). Thus, helping them see better without glasses than they did with the glasses.

Contoura Vision creates a completely personalized treatment plan which is unique to your eyes by mapping 22,000 unique points on your corneas.

LASIK is limited to vision correction solely. When compared to LASIK and SMILE, Contoura Vision has given unmatched outcomes in the field of eye correction treatments.

Treatments of vision correction like LASIK and SMILE might not be recommended by your Eye Surgeon as they often have side effects for example :

  • Sensitivity to light
  • Difficulties when driving in the dark
  • Reading troubles
  • Glares and starburst

All these side effects are significantly reduced with Contoura Vision Surgery.

The key striking feature of Contoura Vision is the fact that it adds a technological edge to the treatment over the regular lasik surgery. While the previous laser vision correction techniques have successfully offered patients incredible precision & accuracy while reshaping the cornea and addressing visual refractive errors, Contoura Vision takes the treatment further.

Instead of just treating the eyeglass prescription, it utilises unparalleled diagnostic capabilities, i.e. a three step correction technique using a Femto Laser, Excimer Laser and a Topolyser , to identify & record the minutest imperfections in the curvature of cornea thereby providing an aspheric correction of spectacle power while also correcting your corneal irregularities and working on visual axis. (Our eye has two kinds of axis, namely, Pupillary Axis which passes though the centre & Visual Axis which passes through the line of sight, they’ve a difference of 5 degrees. While other laser procedures treat on Pupillary Axis, Contoura Vision is directed towards Visual Axis). Post which the measurements are combined with eyeglass prescriptions to give your eyes a better focusing surface, thereby deriving a much superior visual outcome. Not just that, even a lot of the side effects of various other Lasik procedures such as light sen-sitivity, difficulty in night driving, difficulty in reading, glare, starbursts, halos tend to diminish with Contoura Vision.

Contoura Lasik adds a new dimension to vision correction. Contoura Lasik utilises a three step correction technique using a Femto Laser, Eximer Laser and a Topolyser. In this way it is able to give an aspheric correction of spectacle power while also correcting your corneal irregularities and working on visual axis. These give you a perfect optical surface and thereby much superior visual outcomes never seen before in any Lasik or Smile procedures. While Lasik and Smile can only provide a normal 6/6 (20/20) vision, Contoura is able to give better than perfect results of upto 6/5 (20/16) or better.

PERSONALISED TREATMENT
COMPLETELY UNIQUE TO YOUR EYES!
Just like your fingerprints are unique to you, Contoura Lasik creates a procedure completely unique to your eyes. Contoura Vision maps 22,000 unique points on your cornea to create a treatment profile which is then precisely treated by the laser to deliver unmatched outcomes in specs removal surgery.

BETTER THAN LASIK AND SMILE – IN EVERY WAY!
Many of the side effects of Lasik and Smile, such as light sensitivity, difficulty in night driving, difficulty in reading, glare, starbursts, halos are much reduced in Contoura Vision

WHY CONTOURA VISION IS THE BEST LASER EYE SURGERY
Why Contoura vision is the best treatment for specs removal?

From the time that hand-blown glass spectacles and contact lenses were hand crafted for each patient in the 1800s, to today, the correction of refractive errors customized to the needs of the individual have undergone a revolutionary change. Doctors and scientists have collaborated to provide vision correction dimensions which were hitherto unimaginable.

Contoura Vision – Beyond spectacle free

In the armamentarium of ophthalmic surgical innovations, Contoura Vision is the most sophisticated technology, which is actually a topography-guided LASIK treatment system. The technology which is performed using the WaveLight Allegretto Wave Eye-Q or WaveLight EX500 Excimer Laser Systems, in conjunction with the WaveLight Topolyzer Vario Diagnostic Device (manufactured by Alcon, a division of Novartis, USA) uses the specific corneal curvature of the individual patient to provide a customized laser ablation of the cornea. These machines ensure that all the surface imperfections in individual corneas and consequently the optical system of the eye, are recorded and addressed, which results in a sharper and brighter focus.

Translated into patient experience, what this means is that since the cornea is imaged at several points, and each single point is ablated depending on the aberrations present at that point only, the surgery actually provides a vision correction that was not possible until now. This can be done for patients of both nearsightedness, that is, myopia, and astigmatism, with equal
ease.

Better vision than that achieved with glasses or contact lenses

Contoura Vision provides better visual results than either glasses or contact lenses for almost 30% patients as evidenced from multicenter clinical trials. In fact, when evaluating “quality of vision”, that is visual acuity combined with visual symptoms, Contoura vision performed better than both glasses and contact lenses.

In US FDA trials, almost one third of the eyes which had undergone the surgery reported a better unaided vision than that achieved with the glasses/ contact lenses preoperatively, at the end of twelve months after surgery.
Also these patients reported a lower incidence of visual disturbances like glare, halos, difficulty in night time driving and reading etcetera

Let’s talk super vision

In fact, Contoura Vision treatment for vision correction has even provided patients vision better than 6/6 (or 20/20, which is the standardized normal vision) in as many as 40% patients. That is, that 40.4% of the patients evaluated who had 6/6 vision with their glasses before surgery, could actually read one extra line on the visual acuity chart while 13.5% gained two lines on the visual acuity chart.

Contoura Vision – Beyond Bladefree LASIK and SMILE

There is no doubt that other vision correction procedures such as the Bladeless Lasik & Smile offer terrific visual results, but the Contoura Vision experience is one that has been unparalleled to date.

As many as 22000 data points on each of the corneas is evaluated, recorded, and treated accordingly in order to offer crystal clear vision, which is far superior to that offered by any other currently available technology. Also, the ablation is centered on the visual axis of the eye with the help of the fastest gaze tracker in the world, making it safer and more precise than currently available technology.
To borrow an analogy from the world of fashion, it’s the difference between a shirt you pick off the shelf, and one that is custom designed to fit your body: the difference between pret a porter, and couture.

Contoura Vision ® – LATEST, FASTEST & MOST ADVANCED LASER IN THE WORLD.

FDA (U.S.A.) & CE Approved Laser.

The unique feature of Wavefront Topography Guided Laser, Contoura Vision ® (USA-FDA & CE APPROVED LASER) is that it studies each individual eye like an individual fingerprint and corrects accordingly. This laser is specially programmed for a particular eye and currently the latest and most advanced laser vision correction technology available in the world. This makes the treatment results far superior to that of earlier LASIK Laser and SMILE Laser.

The special Wavefront Plus with Final Fit and Multi-Point ablation by this laser system has the world’s best tissue saving wavefront technology which ablates even less than 10 microns of corneal tissue per diopter corrected and has optimized aspheric correction. With this the accuracy and safety of glasses removal laser treatment has achieved new standards at Sangam Netralaya 

There is also the latest high speed eye tracker with on-line torsion error correction, automatic iris pattern recognition for best alignment of cylinder axis with aspheric zone and both the small spot & scanning slit ablation, thus taking the advantage of technical advancements on all fronts.

CONTOURA VISION ® STREAMLIGHT, EPI-CONTOURA, ADVANCED SURFACE ABLATION (ASA).

FDA (U.S.A.) & CE Approved Laser

While Contoura Vision ® Laser eye surgery is helpful for around 80% of our patients who are hoping to have laser vision correction procedures, it is not always the recommended choice for everyone.

INDICATIONS FOR EPI-CONTOURA, CONTOURA VISION ® ASA, & CONTOURA VISION ® STREAMLIGHT The benefit is that the vision correction laser beam works right on the surface of the cornea without the need for a flap.

Patients who have thin corneas, irregular corneas, dry eyes, high powered glasses, certain occupations (eg. Professional Boxers, Armed Forces, Police etc.) or certain hobbies (such as football, karate etc.) choose to have more superficial vision corrections through surface ablation procedures.

ADVANTAGES:

1) Surface ablation avoids all the flap-related & Lenticule-related complications seen in LASIK & SMILE, including incomplete flaps, free caps, buttonhole flaps, flap striae, dislocated flaps, flap melts, epithelial ingrowth, DLK, incomplete lenticule, broken lenticule, etc

2) It is the safest glasses removal laser, it has NO FLAP, NO LENTICULE, NO CUT, infact NO TOUCH ! This is also very safe in case of thin cornea although the recovery takes somewhat longer. This advanced bladeless technique is used for many cases with less corneal thickness or high refractive error.

Refractive surgery is a surgical procedure performed to correct the refractive error (spectacle power) of the eye. It is usually done to get rid of or reduce dependence on glasses and contact lens . It can be performed in a patient with stable refraction (glass power) after the age of 18 – 21 years. Complete medical history along with detailed eye examination is mandatory in all candidates, special Investigations like corneal topography (Pentacam, Orbscan), Anterior segment Optical Coherence Tomography (ASOCT) are performed to evaluate the shape, thickness and curvature of the cornea and other dimensions of the eye. After acquiring all the details, the eye surgeon (ophthalmologist) makes a decision regarding the available options of refractive surgery for the patient.

The current refractive procedures can be classified as Corneal procedures and Lens based surgery.

PRK (Photrefractive Keratectomy)

This procedure involves careful removal of the top most layer of the cornea also known as epithelium , this is followed by Excimer laser (wavelength 193 nm) delivery which reshapes the corneal surface – to correct the refractive power of the eye. A contact lens is placed for a few days to support the healing of the eye, the epithelium is very thin (50 microns) and usually grows back within 3 days.

LASIK (Flap Based Procedure)

This is a very popular procedure and involves creation of a flap (100-120 micron) in the superficial layer of the cornea. This flap can be created by two methods

Microkeratome :

This a small specialised blade that dissects the flap at the accurate depth, hence Microkertome assisted LASIK is also known as BLADE LASIK

Femtosecond laser (wavelength 1053nm) :

This is a specialised laser which creates a flap precisely at the desired depth , it is very different from Excimer laser described above and hence needs a separate machine for delivery. Femtosecond laser assisted LASIK is also known as FEMTO- LASIK. 

After the flap is created by any of the above two methods, it is lifted and the residual bed is then treated with Excimer laser (same laser used in PRK). At the end of the procedure the flap is reposited back in place, on the corneal bed and patient is discharged with medication.

Refractive Lenticule Extraction – ReLEX SMILE / FLEX

This is the most advanced refractive surgery and requires only Femtosecond laser (same laser as described in FEMTO -LASIK). Refractive power of the eye is corrected by using femtosecond laser to create a lenticule (of predetermined size and thickness) within the layers of the cornea .This lenticule can then be extracted in two ways

Through a 4-5mm incision -this is called Femtosecond Lenticule Extraction (FLEX).

Through a very small 2mm incision – this is known as Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE)

Extraction of this lenticule results in altered shape of the cornea and corrects the refractive power. This surgery does not need Excimer laser, Microkeratome blade or flap hence it is popularly known as blade-less, flap-less refractive surgery.

Enhanced Quality Of Vision – Contoura Vision has the ability of correcting even the minutest distortion’s in the cornea, leading to enhanced quality of vision , which is the need of the hour for the symptoms in post lasik procedure, which are markedly reduced or absent in contoura.
Enhanced Quantity Of Vision – Contoura Vision empowers you with a possibility of improved reading capacity by one line as compared to corrective eyewear. (As per FDA’s proven clinical trials).
Enhanced Surgery Experience – Contoura Vision meets the highest standards when it comes to safety and providing a painless experience. The surgery takes place with NO BLADE, NO STITCHES, NO INJECTIONS, NO BANDAGE AND NO HOSPITALISATION.
You can walk in to the centre without any worry & step out with an absolutely perfect & sharper vision. The treatment experience is made efficient & effective to ensure better vision..
Enhanced Post Surgery Experience – Most patients may feel discomfort or issues after undergoing a traditional lasik surgery, however with Contoura Vision you are entitled to a better post-surgery experience.
Enhanced Trust – As per FDA’s proven results of a survey, 98% of patients who underwent Contoura Vision Eye Surgery were extremely satisfied & happy with the procedure and expressed willingness to choose the procedure again.

Contoura vision lasik is far better than silk and smile lasik surgery

In the dynamic landscape of vision correction surgeries, two cutting-edge procedures have emerged as frontrunners: SILK Eye Surgery and Contoura Vision for those seeking enhanced visual acuity.

As you pursue enhanced vision, a crucial decision awaits: which procedure is right for you? This guide compares SILK Eye Surgery and Contoura Vision, empowering readers to make an informed choice aligned with their unique needs and preferences.

Understanding

SILK Eye Surgery
SILK Eye Surgery, short for Smooth Incision Lenticule Keratomileusis, is a revolutionary procedure that reshapes the cornea to correct vision. Unlike traditional LASIK, SILK uses the precise ELITA femtosecond laser to create a microscopic lenticule within the cornea. This lenticule is then extracted through a small incision, changing the refractive power of the cornea and resulting in a minimal surgical invasion.

Contoura Vision
Contoura Vision is a topography-guided laser vision correction procedure that uses mapping technology to create a personalized map of the cornea. It addresses subtle irregularities that may affect vision, and the data guides the laser in reshaping the cornea. This surgery involves creating a thin flap on the cornea, lifting it to reshape the underlying surface with a laser, and then putting the flap back in place for vision correction.

Procedure Comparison

Technology
SILK Eye Surgery uses the next-generation ELITA femtosecond laser, which delivers ultrashort pulses of light, an ultra-fast laser repetition rate, and a small spot size. In contrast, Contoura Vision relies on older mapping technology to guide the excimer laser in reshaping the cornea.

Flap Creation
SILK Eye Surgery is a newer, flapless method that uses a laser to create a small lenticule inside the cornea. In comparison, Contoura Vision involves creating a thin flap on the cornea.

Lenticule Removal
In SILK Eye surgery, a small disc of corneal tissue called a lenticule is removed. In Contoura Vision, the refractive error is corrected by reshaping the cornea directly using the excimer laser without the need for lenticule removal.

Precision and Permanence
SILK Eye Surgery offers precise vision correction using advanced technology and refined techniques. This procedure permanently changes the shape of the cornea, providing long-lasting results for myopia and astigmatism. In contrast, Contoura Vision uses personalized correction based on corneal mapping, achieving high precision. This surgery also leads to lasting results and optimizing visual outcomes, suggesting stability.

Vision Correction Focus
SILK Eye Surgery specializes in myopia and astigmatism, offering a targeted and effective solution. Meanwhile, Contoura Vision addresses a wider range of vision issues, including myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.

Availability in India and Expertise
While both procedures are becoming more accessible in India, SILK Eye Surgery is currently limited to select high-end eye care institutions due to its innovative nature and the specialized expertise required. In contrast, Contoura Vision has gained popularity and is widely available across the country with a proven track record of success.

Risks and Benefits

SILK Eye Surgery offers precise and potentially permanent results with quick recovery. It minimizes the risks associated with older methods, such as complications related to the corneal flap and dry eyes. The temporary risks, like corneal haze, are rare and manageable. Contoura Vision, on the other hand, provides personalized treatment with versatility but may have temporary side effects like glare, halos, and potentially dry eyes due to its flap nature.

FDA Approval
SILK Eye Surgery is CE-mark certified but has not yet been approved by the US FDA. Contoura Vision, on the other hand, is US-FDA approved.

Cost
SILK Eye surgery is pricier due to advanced femtosecond laser tech and precise lenticule removal. Contoura Vision is usually cheaper as it doesn’t require lenticule removal.

Recovery
The recovery period for SILK Eye Surgery is shorter because of the flapless procedure and minimal disruption to the cornea. Most patients can resume activities within 24 hours. SILK is a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles. In contrast, Contoura Vision may have a slightly longer recovery time as the excimer laser directly reshapes the cornea’s surface.

Long Term Results
SILK Eye Surgery is new and has limited patient records, requiring further evaluation for long-term stability. In contrast, Contoura Vision Surgery consistently delivers excellent vision results of 6/6 or better over the years.

Decision-Making Considerations

SILK Eye Surgery:
Ideal for those with thin corneas or who prefer a flapless procedure for less discomfort and precise and efficient recovery.

Contoura Vision:
Ideal for those seeking personalized treatment for a range of refractive errors, including mild to moderate refractive errors, and good candidates for contact lens wear.

SILK Eye Surgery – Elevating Vision Correction

In the clash between SILK Eye Surgery and Contoura Vision, SILK emerges as the clear victor. Its unparalleled precision, focus on specific conditions, and efficient recovery make it the superior choice for those seeking a transformative and enduring vision correction experience.

However, it is a significant decision that should be made after careful consideration of individual preferences, eye health, lifestyle, and overall health, with the guidance of experienced ophthalmologists. It is recommended to consult with a qualified eye care professional to determine the most suitable option based on individual circumstances.

ICL or Intra Collamer Lens is an alternative to LASIK Surgery. In this surgery a Board Certified Ophthalmologist places an artificial lens between the eye’s natural lens and iris. The lens then helps the eye’s existing lens to refract light on the Retina which then produces a clearer image on the eyes than before.

ICL surgery is a procedure that treats poor eyesight from refractive errors by implanting a Collamer® lens into your eye. This surgery may be possible for people who don’t meet the criteria for LASIK surgery.

A Collamer lens combines plastic and collagen to create a more natural and flexible lens. These lenses are lighter than other types of lenses and hydrophilic (they can mix with water and become wet). A Collamer lens is better than some other types of lenses at letting gas and nutrients pass through.

Your surgeon will place the implanted lens behind your iris and in front of your natural lens.

Earlier versions of the implantable lens called for a surgeon to perform a laser iridotomy before the ICL surgery. Your surgeon would make one or two tiny holes in your iris. This would help prevent pressure from building up when they implanted the lens into your eye. The tiny holes allow for proper drainage of aqueous fluid.

Now, there’s the EVO Implantable Collamer Lens, which comes with a tiny hole in the middle of the lens. This hole makes laser iridotomy unnecessary. Fluids can flow naturally through the hole.

What does an Implantable Collamer Lens surgery treat?

You might have an ICL surgery if you have these refractive errors:

Nearsightedness (myopia).
Astigmatism.
How common is this procedure?

Surgeons have performed an estimated 500,000 ICL procedures throughout the world, using about 1 million lenses.

How should I prepare for an Implantable Collamer Lens surgery?

Before you have this surgery, your eye care specialist will do an eye exam, take a medical history and ask you about any medications you normally take.

To be a candidate, you should:

Have a stable prescription (the same for about a year).
Be between 22 years old and 45 years old.
Have eyes that meet certain criteria in terms of shape, anterior angle and thickness of cells on your cornea. The anterior chamber angle in your eye is located between your cornea and iris. Its size influences how quickly aqueous fluid flows out of your eye.
Your provider will tell you how to prepare for the surgery, like if or when you should stop eating or drinking, or if you should stop taking any type of medication before the procedure.

You’ll need to have an adult friend or family member drive you to and from the surgery.

Before the surgery, your surgeon will dilate and numb your eyes with medicated eye drops. Your provider may also give you a mild sedative to help you stay calm and relaxed


What happens during an Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery?

After dilating and numbing your eyes, your surgeon will make a very small incision at the base of your cornea. They’ll fold and insert the implantable lens into the cut and then adjust it behind your iris and in front of your lens. You probably won’t need stitches because the incision is so small and will heal on its own.

How long does an Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery take?

This surgery typically takes less than 30 minutes for both eyes. (You usually have this surgery done on both eyes at once.)

ICL Surgery is useful to people who want to permanently remove their need for spectacles.

If you are experiencing Myopia (nearsightedness) i.e your corneas/lens of the eyes are unable to refract light rays accurately. It is a common condition of the eye in which objects near to the surface of the eye appear clear, but objects away, look blurry and hazy.

If you are experiencing Hyperopia (farsightedness) i.e the objects nearer to the lens of your eye appear blurry but objects far from the lens of the eye look clearer and legible.

If you are experiencing Astigmatism i.e when your cornea or lens has an abnormal shape due to which you may experience distorted or blurry vision.

What is ICL Eye Surgery?

ICL eye surgery is a vision correction procedure designed to treat nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It involves implanting a micro-thin, biocompatible lens between the iris and natural lens of the eye. This lens permanently corrects the eye’s refractive error, functioning similarly to a contact lens, but without the need for daily removal. ICL surgery is considered safe and effective, often providing patients with improved vision quality and reduced dependence on glasses or contact lenses. It’s an option for individuals who aren’t suitable candidates for LASIK or other types of laser eye surgeries.

Why Opt for ICL Eye Surgery?

ICL eye surgery is a preferred option for vision correction due to its unique benefits. It’s suitable for those with high refractive errors or thin corneas, who might not be candidates for LASIK. ICL offers high-quality, sharp vision correction, often surpassing glasses or contact lenses. The procedure is reversible and doesn’t alter the cornea’s shape, making it suitable for individuals with thin corneas or dry eyes. Recovery is relatively quick, and discomfort is minimal. Unlike laser surgeries, ICL works well for those with stable prescriptions. Overall, ICL provides a reliable, long-term solution for vision correction, enhancing daily life without the hassle of glasses or contacts.

ICL Surgery vs LASIK – Why It’s Better?

ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) surgery holds advantages over LASIK in specific cases. It’s suitable for patients with thin corneas or higher refractive errors, who might not qualify for LASIK. Unlike LASIK, ICL doesn’t involve corneal tissue removal, preserving its integrity. This makes ICL reversible and potentially appealing for those with changing prescriptions. Additionally, ICL provides superior vision quality and reduces the risk of dry eyes, as it doesn’t disrupt corneal nerves. While both surgeries are effective, ICL’s versatility and suitability for a broader range of candidates make it a compelling choice for those seeking long-term vision correction.

ICL surgery Risks Involved

ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) surgery has potential risks, although they are generally rare. Infection and inflammation are possible complications. The procedure might induce cataract development or increase intraocular pressure. Night vision issues like glare or halos can occur. In some cases, the lens might need to be repositioned or removed due to improper placement or other concerns. Endothelial cell loss, though minimal, is another consideration. Pre-existing eye conditions could impact outcomes. Regular follow-up is crucial to monitor potential complications. While complications are infrequent, individuals considering ICL surgery should thoroughly discuss risks with their eye surgeon to make an informed decision.

Are Eligible for Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL)

Individuals eligible for Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery typically have moderate to high refractive errors, such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), or astigmatism. They should be at least 18 years old with stable prescriptions for about a year. Candidates must not have certain eye conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, or severe dry eyes. ICL is suitable for those with thin corneas or individuals not qualifying for LASIK due to corneal thickness limitations. A thorough eye evaluation by an ophthalmologist is essential to determine eligibility, considering factors like eye health, prescription stability, and corneal thickness.

FAQs Related to Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) Surgery

Q 1) What are The Precautions To Be Taken?

Ans: Here are some precautions to be taken pre and post-surgery:

Consult your doctor and follow their advice strictly

Disclose your medical history before. This means any allergy or ongoing medications should be shared as it can cause serious implications.

Completely refrain from smoking and alcohol. Go for a balanced diet for quick recovery.

You need to rest a lot and avoid stress as best as possible.

No heavy physical activity that might strain your eyes.

Wear sunglasses and protect yourself from the sun. This is very important

Q 1) How Much is The ICL surgery success rate?

Ans: A 90% success rate of ICL surgeries speaks volumes for their positive results for regaining complete vision. People with mild to moderate refractive errors have higher chances of regaining clearer vision.

Q 2) How Much Is The ICL Surgery Recovery Time?

Ans: The recovery time for ICL surgery is fast, it takes anywhere between 4 weeks to a month to recover. This is dependent upon the patient – how well they are following their ophthalmologist’s advice. You might face discomfort at the beginning but it gets better with time.

Q 3 ) Is there any ICL surgery age limit?

Ans: As per the FDA, the approved age for ICL surgery patients is between the ages of 8 and 45. It is not necessary and can be performed beyond this age group. This needs approval from your doctor who will carefully examine your medical history and reliability.

Q 4) Does ICL surgery hurt?

Ans: ICL treatments are designed to be painless and is done under local anesthesia. This means you won’t feel any pain. You might feel a sensation of pressure but is generally not painful.

Q 5) Can I see clearly immediately after ICL surgery?

Ans: You will notice improvement almost immediately. The experience can vary due to individuals’ perspectives and other factors like the healing process, temporary side effects, etc.

Q6) Is ICL surgery permanent?

Ans: The surgery has its flexibility in terms of permanence where the corrective lens inside the eye works with the natural lens to correct vision. One can say it has long-term results.

A cataract is a cloudy area formed in the lens of the eye that causes loss of vision. There are roughly 1 million cases per year in India, treated by medical professionals, that makes it a rather common problem found in most households. There are several reasons why the problem of Cataract has become so common. Some diseases that we inherit genetically make us susceptible to having cataract problems. Our lifestyles, too, have deteriorated exponentially. Diabetic conditions, smoking, obesity and high blood pressure put us at a high risk of Cataracts on a daily basis.

How does SMILE Pro work?

Until now, refractive correction has usually involved the surgeon first cutting a flap, which was then folded back to remove corneal tissue point by point. SMILE Pro now enables laser vision correction without a corneal flap and is thus minimally invasive.

Creation of the lenticle and the incision
The first step with the VisuMax 800 is to create a refractive lenticule and a small incision of no more than two to three millimeters in the intact cornea, which can be done almost independently of the surrounding conditions and corneal condition

Removal of the lenticle
In the second step, the lenticle is removed through the created incision. Since no flap is cut, this is only a minimal intervention in the biomechanics of the cornea.

Rehabilitation
Removal of the lenticle changes the cornea to achieve the desired refractive change.

FAQs

The corneal opening with the SMILE Pro method is significantly smaller (2 mm) than with LASIK (20 mm). The cornea remains stable and the tear flow remains intact, making it all the more safer.

With the SMILE Pro procedure, the surgeons work with the so-called keyhole technology. The cornea remains stable and the tear flow is hardly disturbed compared to LASIK.

Although flap complications are very rare with a LASIK incision, they are completely eliminated with SMILE Pro treatment due to the keyhole technology.
