Which laser eye surgery is best?

Author: Dr. Victor Derhartunian 6 December 2021

Which is the best laser eye surgery method?
Patients often ask me this question and the answer is always the same:

There is no best method in the field of laser eye surgery, but there is the best adapted method for the respective patient.

There are patients who do boxing, for example, for whom I cannot offer an incision method or at least not a Femto-LASIK method, so I would offer either the SmartSight or the Trans-PRK method, i.e. without an incision, and there are patients who need or want to see as quickly as possible the very next day and then only Femto-LASIK or SmartSight is possible in this area. 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.
