Laser and lens procedures

The right one depends on your eyes, your prescription and your age. Your consult works out which, if any, suits you.

  • LASIK

    Laser reshaping of the cornea beneath a thin flap.

  • TransPRK

    A surface laser treatment, with no flap.

  • SmartSight (KLEx)

    A flap-free procedure performed through a small incision in the cornea.

  • PresbyMAX

    Laser treatment for reading vision.

  • ICL surgery

    Implantable collamer lenses for higher prescriptions or thinner corneas where laser is not suitable.

  • Refractive lens exchange

    The eye’s natural lens is replaced with an artificial lens.

  • Cataract surgery

    Monofocal, multifocal and toric lens options.
