Does laser eye surgery correct astigmatism, short-sightedness and long-sightedness?

Author: Dr. Victor Derhartunian 3 November 2021

Laser eye surgery actually corrects all visual defects.
We can use the laser to correct both short-sightedness and long-sightedness, astigmatism and astigmatism, and presbyopia can also be corrected if the appropriate technique or profile is selected.
Whether laser treatment is absolutely possible depends on the degree of the visual defect.
There are visual defects that can no longer be corrected with laser eye surgery because the visual defect is too high, for example, and in this case it would be better to move towards lens surgery in order to give the patient the best possible quality of vision. I would like to invite you to take the self-evaluation test on our website.
This test will give you a rough idea of whether you are suitable for laser eye treatment and, of course, if you are suitable for laser eye treatment, which method this might be.
