So you would like to see better without glasses or contact lenses.
Vision Correction Surgery includes a wide range of Laser and Non Laser procedures. Just as a size 14 dress would not fit a size 10 person then a surgical technique that is right for one patient will not be right for another. You may have seen many advertisements depicting Laser eye surgery in a very selective and simplistic style. The fact is that laser vision correction is safe and effective provided the surgery be tailored to every patient rather than offering each patient a single procedure like LASIK. It is like a car salesperson saying, "You can have a car in any colour provided it is black". It is not right when you buy a car and certainly not when it comes to surgery on your eyes.

Your decision to have any vision correction surgery should be a positive informed decision based on an individual and accurate assessment of the potential risks and benefits.

In general if you are younger than 50, do not need reading glasses and have a mild to moderate focusing error, Laser Vision surgery may be the procedure of choice. If you are older than 50, need or are likely to need reading glasses in the near future or have a severe focusing error, Laser vision surgery is generally inappropriate and lens based surgery like Refractive Lens Exchange or Phakic Intra-Ocular Lenses could provide a better solution.

This specialist centre offers the full range of vision correction surgical options and can consider treating all types and severity of refractive errors at almost any stage of life.
