PROCEDURE

A semicircular cut is made to remove
the top layer of the cornea (flap) for direct
access to the cornea.

The epithelium is removed, exposing the cornea.

The laser is used to reshape the cornea
and correct the visual defect, and UV
light is directed at the eye to activate the
riboflavin and strengthen the cornea.

A soft lens, like a bandage, is placed on the
cornea to help protect the eye while it heals.

BENEFITS

Safe and precise
technique.

Prevents further deformations
in the cornea.

A suitable method for individuals with corneas of at least 400 microns thickness.

Strengthens the cornea by hardening collagen fibers.

PROCEDURE

  • A thin lenticule is created, and a small incision is made inside the cornea.
  • The lenticule is extracted through the previously made incision, with minimal alteration to the cornea.
  • As the lenticule is removed, the shape of the cornea changes, achieving the desired refractive correction.

BENEFITS

Precise correction.

Ideal for healthy corneas
(thin and thick).

Preserves greater
corneal resistance.

Improves visual quality.

Safe.

Advanced technology.

PROCEDURE

A semicircle is created by cutting
the top layer of the cornea (flap)
to gain direct access to the cornea.

Depending on the pre-surgical assessment, the laser will be
personalized to reshape the cornea
and correct the visual defect.

After the laser treatment,
the flap is repositioned with a
self-sealing edge, without the need for stitches.

BENEFITS

Safe and precise
method.

Quality of vision.

Fast recovery.

Improved night vision and chromatic perception for color appreciation.

PROCEDURE

  • Local anesthesia is administered to ensure patient comfort during the procedure.
  • Using a small instrument, the surgeon carefully removes the cataract, typically in one piece, while preserving the lens capsule.
  • A larger incision is made, necessitating multiple sutures for proper closure.
  • An intraocular lens (IOL) is then implanted to restore and correct the patient’s vision.
