What is laser eye surgery? How does laser eye surgery work?

We correct most visual defects with laser eye surgery.

How does laser eye surgery work?

When correcting short-sightedness, the cornea is flattened, when correcting long-sightedness, the cornea is split, and when correcting astigmatism, depending on the type of corneal curvature, part of the cornea is split and part of the corneal curvature is flattened.
This is the principle of laser vision correction for all techniques available on the market today. 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.
