Eye Health And Vision Care
LASIK is a 10-minute surgery that may assist you in getting rid of contact lenses and glasses. LASIK is effective at treating refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism:
Myopia [ Near Sightedness ]
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is an eye disease in which near things are focused correctly, but distant ones are not. This might lead to difficulties such as being unable to identify objects at a distance, headaches, and eye strain. The goal of myopia surgery treatment is to flatten the cornea so that light can focus directly on the retina, rather than in front or behind of it.
Hyperopia [ Far Sightedness ]
The visual acuity of a person with hyperopia or farsightedness is lower than that of a person without this condition. The eye can clearly distinguish far-off things, but nearby objects are difficult to visualize. If left untreated, hyperopia may induce severe headaches and blurred vision. The objective of surgery therefore is to elongate the eye and make the cornea a bit steeper.
Astigmatism [ Irregular Cornea ]
Astigmatism is a condition in which the eyes are not entirely round. The corneal curvature is not entirely symmetrical, and the cornea is irregular. Light scattering around causes distortions in vision due to irregularities. By manipulating certain portions of the cornea unevenly during surgery, its curvature is made smooth and symmetrical.This helps to improve vision.
LASIK Vs Contoura Vs SMILE
You’ve undoubtedly heard of laser eye surgery as a method of correcting vision. SMILE, Contoura, and Lasik are three types of laser eye surgery procedures. But which one is the finest for you?

LASIK Procedure
We offer the finest and safest surgical procedure for specs removal, as confirmed by our Lasik eye surgeons in Delhi. Flap-based (PRK) and Flapless (PRK) are the two most common methods of performing Lasik operations.
Flap-Based Procedure
- Uses a microkeratome or a Femto Laser to create a very thin corneal flap.
- The flap is pushed back to reveal the underlying tissue.
- Reshaping the cornea with an excimer laser in a unique pre-determined pattern
Flapless Procedure
- Uses a laser to cut through the epidermis (outer layer of the eye) of the front eye tissue layer (epithelial).
- The cornea is reshaped using an excimer laser.
- However, this is the most secure technique, but it takes 1-2 days longer to heal.

Surgery Cost
The price of LASIK eye surgery varies based on the type of surgery you select. The more sophisticated the technology, the higher the price. But, the cost also reflects the expertise and experience of the ophthalmologist performing the surgery. Fewer than 10% of all eye surgeons in India have the training and experience to perform LASIK surgery.
The Eye Mantra hospital is one of the finest eye hospitals in India that provides LASIK eye surgery at reasonable rates. The cost of Standard Blade LASIK ranges from $15,000 to $25,000. In Delhi, bladeless LASIK surgery might cost anywhere from $75,000 to $90,000 (approx). The cost, however, depends on the procedure used and the complexity of each case.

Frequently Asked Question’s.
What is the difference between LASIK and other refractive surgery procedures?
LASIK is approved for the correction of nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. LASIK surgery uses one type of laser that cuts a flap in your eye to reshape its natural shape. It’s better than refractive lens surgery because it has a decreased amount of problems and is more predictable. Furthermore, it’s more effective for patients with higher degrees of refractive error.
How do you know if you're a good fit for LASIK surgery?
You must meet the following requirements to be a qualified LASIK candidate: You must be at least 18 years old. Corneal disease should have been discovered or indicated in the past. Change your eyeglasses or contact lenses on a regular basis if you want them to stay clear. Some conditions and medications, such as steroids, may cause vision changes. You should have large pupils and dry eyes.
What should you do before having LASIK eye surgery?
Before coming for LASIK, prepare the following: Put the antibiotic eye drops in both eyes as directed by your eye doctor six times a day one day before surgery. On the day of LASIK, do not use scents, powder, or cosmetics on your face and eyes. One week before surgery, stop using contact lenses. It is okay to have a small amount of relaxation time with your doctor’s permission. Wash your hair on the day of LASIK so you will not feel the need to wash them for the next two or three days. Consume a regular, light meal before coming in for LASIK.
It is extremely important that you follow all of your eye doctor’s instructions before LASIK surgery. This will help ensure that the procedure goes smoothly and that you experience the best possible results. Be sure to ask your doctor any questions you may have so that you are fully prepared for the procedure.
Is it safe to have a laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) procedure?
LASIK eye surgery is quite safe. These operations are also US FDA approved, which means they have been assessed and found to be safe for human eyes. However, like every other surgical procedure, it has the potential to cause complications if a thorough pre-procedure examination isn’t done.
Some patients might experience mild dryness in their eyes, which can usually be relieved by using lubricating eye drops. Some may also experience temporary halos around lights at night, but this should diminish over time. After LASIK surgery, some patients might experience mild heaviness or blurred vision. These are due to the numbing eye drops used during the procedure and should wear off shortly. Overall, these side effects are rare and can easily be managed by your doctor.
Is the LASIK treatment painful?
No, LASIK eye surgery does not entail any discomfort. Many patients report that their LASIK operation did not cause them any discomfort. Before LASIK eye surgery, an anaesthetic solution is applied to completely numb the eye. You may be given a mild sedative to give a calm sensation to the candidate before surgery.
LASIK surgery is a very quick procedure. The whole surgery takes place within minutes and there is no need to stay overnight at the hospital. However, you may experience some discomfort and tearing in your eyes for the first 24 hours after the surgery. It is important to rest your eyes and take good care of them after the surgery.
