Answer Dear Vianney,
You may read more about this procedure on www.lasikindia.in and also the advanced form of LASIK that we perform.
Advantages of our technology
Ø Accuracy of treatment since we use the fastest laser - takes 1/5th the time that other lasers take for similar numbers hence better patient compliance
Ø Faster healing and visual recovery
Ø Saves upto 40% corneal tissue as compared to most lasers hence able to treat higher numbers much safer.
Ø Due to corneal savings we can treat patients which other centers cannot who otherwise on other lasers would have been left with a residual error (number)
Ø Most lasers have between -5.00 D and -7.00D as their upper limit of treatment hence higher chances of residual errors in spite of LASIK with such older technology. Our upper limit is -14.00D with far more safety as compared to other lasers
However, for costs etc. please write to us on shroffeye@vsnl.com or visit our website
