LASIK

LASIK is a popular laser procedure that corrects vision by reshaping the cornea to treat near-sightedness, far-sightedness, and astigmatism. The surgeon creates a thin flap to apply the laser, resulting in a very fast recovery. Most people notice a significant improvement in their sight within 24 hours and return to work the next day.

LASIK explained

LASIK is a quick laser procedure that reshapes the cornea to correct short-sight, long-sight or astigmatism, reducing your need for glasses.

What is LASIK?

LASIK is a laser eye procedure that gently reshapes the surface of the cornea so light focuses correctly on the retina. The surgeon creates a thin flap, reshapes the tissue beneath with a precise laser, then repositions the flap, which heals naturally.

Is it right for me?

LASIK suits adults with a stable prescription and healthy, sufficiently thick corneas. A detailed eye scan checks your suitability; if LASIK isn't ideal, your surgeon may suggest Femto-LASIK, SMILE or a lens-based option.

How it's done, step by step

  1. 1

    Full eye assessment and scans to confirm suitability.

  2. 2

    Numbing drops are applied, with no injections or general anaesthetic.

  3. 3

    A thin corneal flap is created.

  4. 4

    A precise laser reshapes the cornea to your prescription.

  5. 5

    The flap is repositioned and begins to heal almost immediately.

What you'll experience

The laser part takes only minutes per eye and is comfortable thanks to numbing drops, though you may feel light pressure. You rest briefly, then your consultant arranges your transfer and aftercare in your language.

Recovery & results timeline

Vision is often noticeably clearer within a day, with mild dryness or haloes that settle over days to weeks. You'll use eye drops, avoid rubbing your eyes and swimming for a short period, and attend follow-up checks.
