Femto-LASIK and Presbyond Laser in Turkey, Prices of Istanbul Clinics

What is Femto-LASIK for Vision Correction?

The Femto LASIKeye surgery is a minimally invasive ophthalmic procedure performed using the femtosecond laser. It is currently the most advanced and the safest surgical technique for vision correction (treatment of optical defects).

Optical defects are conditions that prevent the light rays from focusing on the retina. They can be mentioned as follows:

• Myopia;
• Astigmatism;
• Hypermetropia;
• Presbyopia;

It is the most common intervention in Turkey and Istanbul, and it is essential to correct the refractive defects.

The advantages of this technique are the rapid visual recovery and the absence of pain during the postoperative course.

Femto Lasik Eye procedure Surgery in Turkey: Prices & Reviews

The surgical procedure involves the creation of a corneal flap through the Femtolaser. The latter is employed to treat the visual defect in the deepest layers of the cornea with the excimer laser.

After the treatment, the flap is repositioned in the initial location. It naturally adheres in a few seconds as if it were a natural contact lens.

On one hand, with the traditional LASIK procedure, vision correction can be performed through a mechanical blade (microkeratome). This aims to create the corneal flap. On the other hand, the Femto LASIK eye surgery does not involve any cutting as the corneal flap is created using the femtosecond laser.

As a result, this makes the entire procedure completely non-invasive. It also allows the surgeon to organize the Femtolaser according to the different and unique characteristics of each patient. It is characterized by its maximum precision, allowing the eye to maintain even more corneal tissues.

The technique allows the best eye doctors to calculate and accurately predict the results with a significant reduction of the risk of error. 

Risks and contraindications of Femto-LASIK Eye procedure Surgery

Although Femto LASIK eye surgery is today the most sophisticated and reliable technique that is able to correct optical defects. It is not possible to guarantee a perfect result or an intervention without complications. During the preoperative eye exams, the ophthalmologist evaluates the situation of each patient. Then he will inform him/her about any possible risks or additional limits.

Femto-LASIK is not recommended in the case of eye diseases such as keratoconus, corneal degenerations, glaucoma, cataract, and proliferative diabetic retinopathy. If you are under 18 years old, you should not have this kind of intervention since your eyes are still evolving.

Femto-LASIK Vs Femto SMILE

There are many differences between the Femto-LASIK technique and Femto-SMILE. Each treatment is officious and has many advantages.

The Femto-SMILE is a newer technique which minimally invasive compared to LASIK.

What is Femto SMILE?

Femto SMILE (an acronym for Small Incision Lenticule Extraction),is the most recent version of LASIK with lesser side effects. It is less invasive and only suitable for people with myopia and astigmatism.

If you are suffering from one of these refractive errors or both, you are a good candidate for this treatment.

What is the best option: Femto LASIK or SMILE?

They both are efficient and safe, however:

• Femto-LASIK has been demonstrating amelioration in vision correction at small pupil diameter.
• Femto-SMILE has been showing better vision correction than Femto-LASIK at larger pupil diameter. 

It means that night vision might be more improved after the SMILE procedure.
