What is specs removal surgery?

Specs removal surgery, commonly known as LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis), is a revolutionary vision correction procedure that reshapes the cornea to fix myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. The result? Perfect vision without glasses or contact lenses!


What LASIK Surgery do?

We need spectacles because our eyes might not focus light properly on the retina, which can cause blurry vision. This can happen due to issues like nearsightedness (can't see far), farsightedness (can't see close), or astigmatism (distorted vision). Thus, after reshaping the cornea the light focuses correctly on the retina, improving vision.

LASIK surgery corrects the below eye conditions:

Steps of LASIK surgery

Steps For Flap Based Procedures:

Steps For Flap Based Lasik

1. Eye Numbing: Numbing drops are applied to make the procedure painless.

2. Creating the Flap: A fine blade or laser is used to create a thin flap in the cornea.

3. Reshaping Cornea: The excimer laser reshapes the cornea to correct vision.

4. Close the Flap: The flap is carefully repositioned to heal naturally.

Steps For Flapless Procedure:

Steps Of Flapless Lasik

1. Eye Numbing: Ensuring a pain-free procedure, numbing drops are applied.

2. Removing the Epithelium and Reshaping the Cornea: The excimer laser is used to gently uncouple and reshape the cornea for vision correction.

3. Healing: The outer layer of the cornea heals naturally over time. With a contact lens, the healing process is protected during the recovery phase. The BCL, or Bandage Contact Lens, is removed after 5 days.


Pre-op and Post-op LASIK Instructions

Before LASIK:

✔ Avoid makeup, perfume, and other lotions on the day of the procedure.

✔ Have light meals prior to the appointment, and arrange a ride home.

✔ No contact wearing for at least 7-10 days prior to the appointment.

After LASIK:

✔ Refrain from using swimming or gym facilities for a minimum of 2 weeks.

✔ Outdoors, use UV protective sunglasses.

✔ Prescribed eye drops should be maintained regularly.

Options For Glass Removal

SmartSurf LASIK Surgery

SmartSurf is a touchless, flapless, and one step procedure. This is the latest method to remove glasses. Even when other LASIK types don’t suit at that point also SmartSurf changes the game.

This is the simplest technique because it's mechanized and done in one step. For tissue access, the excimer laser gently removes epithelium from the cornea. It then reshapes the cornea with the same laser.

Finally, a bandage contact lens protects the cornea and epithelium. Five days following surgery, this contact lens is removed. After surgery, the epithelium layer regenerates over a few days.

Smartsurf Lasik Surgery

Advantages of SmartSurf Glass Removal Surgery

  • There's no corneal flap to cut, hence there are no flap-related issues like with LASIK.
  • It captures over 100,000 precise corneal images to advance eye mapping.
  • Intelligent Thermal Effect Control (ITEC) revolutionizes eye safety. Imagine having a guardian angel during your vision transition.
  • For thinner corneas, where regular LASIK may not work, this is safer.
  • Flapless procedures reduce dry eye risk.
  • Patients can resume normal activities in a week and recover visually in a few weeks.

Femtosecond Lasik

Femtosecond Lasik is the most common and easier refractive procedure which involves reshaping the cornea with an excimer laser. There is no use of blade, thus it is also named as Bladeless Lasik. This laser is used twice in the surgery, firstly to create a flap and secondly to correct the refractive error.

This is the most efficient, precise, predictable and safe way to correct vision issues for patients with mild to moderate amounts of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism.

Femtosecond Lasik Treatment

Benefits of Femtosecond:

  • A laser is used instead of a blade, making it safer.
  • The treatment is personalized for each person’s vision needs.
  • Healing is faster.
  • The laser machine creates an accurate flap, giving better results.
  • Advanced technology helps improve vision.
  • The bladeless method makes the procedure more precise.
  • The process allows for quicker recovery. So, patient can start normal activities from the next day.

Contoura Vision (Topo-guided Contour Treatment)

Topo-guided contour treatment, also known as Contoura Vision, combines prescription with corneal topography maps and provides an improved quality of vision. This is an additional step taken after removing the number. This helps remove the irregularities and aberrations on the cornea. Topo-guided can be added in all types of LASIK:

  • C- LASIK (Blade) + Topoguidied Contour (TG)
  • SBK + Topoguidied Contour (TG)
  • Femto LASIK (Bladeless) + Topoguidied Contour (TG)
  • Trans PRK + Topoguidied Contour (TG)
How Does Contoura Vision Work

It provides a highly precise and accurate mapping of 22,000 points on cornea which can identify hidden irregularities.

More than 90% of the people treated with Topo Guided Contour experienced a vision sharper than a vision with glasses.

Benefits of Femtosecond:

  • The treatment is personalized using detailed maps of the cornea.
  • Corrects vision problems and irregularities in the cornea accurately.
  • Fixes advanced issues like irregular astigmatism for better results.
  • Enhances overall vision quality, including clarity, contrast sensitivity, and night vision.
  • Maintains or improves the natural quality of vision.

Trans PRK (Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy)

Trans PRK (Trans-epithelial Photo Refractive Keratectomy) is a technique that allows the laser to access and reshape the cornea without any sort of cutting or creating a flap. This is the upgraded version of PRK. All the steps are done by the machine only and all at once. Thus, it is also known as Touchless and Flapless LASIK.

It is considered the most effective, precise, and advanced technique to correct the refractive errors and has been popular for its touch-free laser eye correction method.

Trans Prk Lasik Surgery

Benefits:

  • Does not involve usage of Alcohol for epithelium removal, hence precised epithelial removal by laser.
  • FDA-approved surface-based laser refractive procedure
  • One Step Procedure
  • Does not require creating corneal flaps
  • Reduces the risk of complications associated with corneal flaps like epithelial ingrowth or flap dislocation
  • Suitable for individuals with thin corneas.
  • Significantly lowers the risk of corneal ectasia (thin cornea).
  • Provides long-term stability with sustained vision and refractive correction.

SBK (Sub-Bowman’s Keratomileusis) | Thin Flap LASIK

SBK is a more advanced form of traditional LASIK. The procedure still employs a microkeratome blade to form a corneal flap, just like C-LASIK. The difference is that in SBK, more corneal tissue is preserved as the flap is created less than Bowman's layer of the cornea making it thinner.

Once the thin flap has been raised, the eyelid is repositioned and the excimer laser is utilized to reshape the cornea in order to achieve the desired vision. The flap is gently placed back into position.

Customized And Sbk Lasik Surgery

Benefits of SBK:

  • Thinner flap means more corneal strength is preserved.
  • Safer option for people with thinner corneas.
  • Less dryness and discomfort after surgery.
  • Fast recovery – clear vision often returns within a day.
  • Helps reduce the risk of complications related to thicker flaps.

Customized LASIK (C-LASIK)

Customized LASIK, or C-LASIK for short, employs a microkeratome blade to excise a flap of cornea, subsequently using excimer laser to reshape the cornea in accordance with the patient's particular prescription. The “customization” comes from the advanced mapping, wavefront guided or topography guided, which captures minutiae of the patient’s eye, thus providing a more tailored treatment plan. This type of LASIK is better than standard LASIK due to customization features.

This procedure has been proven helpful for the treatment of common vision ailments which include myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism

Benefits of C-LASIK:

  • Customized treatment improves clarity and contrast, especially in low light.
  • Uses detailed mapping for better accuracy.
  • Can reduce night vision issues like halos or glare.
  • Faster visual recovery – most people see clearly within a day.
  • Quick procedure with minimal discomfort.

What If You’re not suitable for LASIK Surgery?

You don’t need to worry! If you are not eligible for LASIK then there are other options like ICL/ IPCL and RLE/CLE.


Phakic IOLs (ICL & IPCL Surgery)

If you’re not suitable for LASIK due to high power or thin corneas, Phakic IOLs like ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) and IPCL (Implantable Phakic Contact Lens) can be a great alternative to get rid of glasses or contact lenses.

In this procedure, a special lens is implanted inside your eye without removing your natural lens. It works like putting a contact lens inside your eye – but permanently. This is ideal for people with high refractive errors or corneas not suitable for laser surgery.

Icl And Ipcl Surgery

Benefits of ICL/IPCL Surgery:

  • Excellent vision quality, especially for high powers.
  • No removal or reshaping of the cornea – natural cornea stays untouched.
  • Reversible – the lens can be removed or replaced if needed.
  • Safe for people with thin corneas or dry eyes.
  • Fast recovery with little discomfort.
  • Custom lenses available to correct astigmatism or even reading vision.

Procedure Steps:

1. Detailed eye measurements are taken before surgery.

2. Local anesthesia (eye drops) is used to numb the eye.

3. A tiny incision is made in the cornea.

4. The folded lens is inserted and gently placed behind the iris.

5. The lens opens up inside the eye and stays in place permanently.

Over 10 million people worldwide have benefited from this technology – a safe and effective solution for clear, stable vision.


RLE / CLE (Refractive Lens Exchange / Clear Lens Extraction)

RLE (Refractive Lens Exchange) or CLE (Clear Lens Extraction) is a lens replacement surgery similar to cataract surgery – but done for people who don’t have cataracts. It’s usually chosen by those over 40 who want to permanently correct their vision and reduce their dependency on glasses or contact lenses.

In this procedure, your natural lens is removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and presbyopia (age-related reading issues).

Icl And Ipcl Surgery

Benefits of RLE/CLE:

  • Permanent solution to vision problems – no need for glasses.
  • Ideal for those with presbyopia or high power who aren't suitable for LASIK.
  • Can correct distance, intermediate, and near vision with premium lenses.
  • Also prevents future cataracts, since the natural lens is removed.
  • Suitable for people with thin corneas, dry eyes, or other LASIK limitations.

Procedure Steps:

1. An eye exam is done to choose the right artificial lens.

2. Eye drops numb the eye – no pain, and you stay awake.

3. A small cut is made to remove the natural lens.

4. The artificial lens is inserted in its place.

5. The cut heals naturally – no stitches needed.

The whole process takes about 10-12 minutes per eye, and most people recover quickly.
