What is Femto Lasik?

Femto LASIK (Femtosecond Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a modern and advanced form of laser eye surgery used to correct refractive errors like myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism.


It uses a femtosecond laser to create a corneal flap instead of a microkeratome blade, offering several key advantages:



Advantages of Femto LASIK:


1. Blade-Free and Safer


  • The flap is created using a femtosecond laser, eliminating the need for a surgical blade.
  • This reduces the risk of complications associated with blade usage (e.g., uneven or incomplete flaps).


2. Higher Precision


  • The femtosecond laser allows for precise and customizable flap thickness, diameter, and position.
  • Especially beneficial for patients with thin corneas or other anatomical challenges.


3. Faster Healing and Recovery


  • The smooth and accurate flap creation facilitates faster corneal healing.
  • Patients often experience clear vision within 24 hours.


4. Less Risk of Dry Eyes


  • Because of the precision in flap creation, fewer corneal nerves are damaged, which can reduce the severity and duration of dry eye symptoms post-surgery.


5. Better Visual Outcomes


  • Improved alignment and accuracy of the flap contribute to better visual acuity and fewer higher-order aberrations (night glare, halos, etc.).


6. Reduced Risk of Complications


  • Fewer flap-related complications such as flap dislocation, buttonholes, or irregular cuts.
  • Lower chance of epithelial ingrowth.


7. Suitable for More Patients



  • Because of its customization and precision, it can be offered to people who were previously ineligible  for traditional LASIK.


What is Femto LASIK?

Femto LASIK is a modern, bladeless laser eye surgery that corrects vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It’s a safe and precise way to help you see clearly without glasses or contact lenses.


How Does It Work?

  • Gentle Flap Creation: Instead of using a blade, a special laser called a femtosecond laser creates a very thin, precise flap on the surface of your eye. This flap is painless and incredibly accurate.


  • Reshaping the Cornea:
    After lifting the flap, a second laser reshapes the cornea underneath to correct your vision.


  • Flap Replacement:
     The flap is then carefully placed back, where it naturally sticks without needing stitches.


Why Choose Femto LASIK?

  • Bladeless and safer than traditional LASIK


  • Quick procedure — usually finished in 10 to 15 minutes


  • Fast recovery — many patients see clearly within 24 hours


  • Less discomfort and fewer risks


  • Suitable for more patients, including those with thinner corneas
