Laser eye surgery refers to a group of procedures that use laser energy to reshape eye tissue, remove obstructions, or correct vision. This includes PRK, laser cataract surgery, SLT, and YAG capsulotomy.
PRK is a surface-based procedure that doesn’t involve creating a flap in the cornea, making it ideal for patients with thinner corneas or higher risk of trauma. It has a slightly longer healing time than LASIK but offers similar visual results.
YAG laser capsulotomy is used to treat posterior capsule opacification (PCO), a common side effect after cataract surgery. It’s a painless, quick procedure that clears up vision cloudiness using precise laser pulses.
Yes. SLT (Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty) is a non-invasive laser procedure used to lower intraocular pressure in open-angle glaucoma. It’s often recommended when eye drops aren’t enough or cause side effects.
Recovery times vary based on your procedure from several days to a week. Some procedures like YAG & SLT typically have no downtime and you can return to activities the same day.
