Lasik Surgery
LASIK Surgery
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a safe and effective laser vision correction surgery designed to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses and contact lenses. It reshapes the cornea, allowing light to focus correctly on the retina for clear vision.
At Dr. Vishal Maniar’s Eye Clinic, we use the latest bladeless and customized LASIK technology to treat myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. With advanced equipment, precision planning, and over 17 years of surgical experience, Dr. Maniar ensures quick recovery, high success rates, and improved visual freedom for patients.

When to Consider LASIK
- • Dependence on glasses or contact lenses
- • Difficulty seeing distant or near objects (myopia or hyperopia)
- • Blurred or fluctuating vision
- • Astigmatism causing distorted or double vision
- • Desire for freedom from corrective eyewear
Who is Eligible for LASIK?
Not everyone is a candidate for LASIK. The ideal candidates include:
- • Age 18 years or older
- • Stable eye power for at least 1 year
- • Healthy corneas with adequate thickness
- • No active eye infections or diseases
- • Not pregnant or breastfeeding
- • Free from severe dry eye syndrome
Types of LASIK Procedures
LASIK uses advanced laser technology to reshape the cornea and improve vision. Options include:
- Standard LASIK: Corrects myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.
- Bladeless (Femto LASIK): Uses a femtosecond laser for precision flap creation.
- Custom LASIK: Wavefront-guided procedure tailored to individual eye patterns.
- SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction): Minimally invasive flapless surgery.
Recovery & Aftercare
LASIK recovery is quick, but proper care ensures best results. Key guidelines include:
- • Use prescribed lubricating and antibiotic eye drops
- • Avoid rubbing or touching your eyes
- • Wear protective glasses outdoors
- • Avoid swimming, eye makeup, and dusty environments for 2 weeks
- • Rest your eyes from screens for the first 24–48 hours

Long-Term Eye Care After LASIK
- • Attend regular annual eye checkups
- • Protect eyes from UV rays with sunglasses
- • Maintain good eye hydration with artificial tears if needed

Everything you need to know about LASIK eye surgery — procedure, benefits, risks, and why Dr. Vishal Maniar is trusted for safe and advanced vision correction.
What is LASIK Surgery?
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a laser-based procedure that reshapes the cornea to correct refractive errors like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It provides clear vision without dependence on glasses or contact lenses.
Types of LASIK Procedures
- Standard LASIK: Uses a microkeratome blade for flap creation
- Bladeless / Femto LASIK: Uses femtosecond laser for greater precision
- Wavefront-Guided LASIK: Customized treatment for unique eye shapes
- Topography-Guided LASIK: Corrects corneal irregularities
- PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy): Alternative for thin corneas
Pre-Surgery Evaluation
- Corneal Topography: Maps corneal shape and thickness
- Pachymetry: Measures corneal thickness for safety
- Refraction Test: Determines exact vision correction
- Tear Film Test: Assesses dry eye risk
- Pupil Measurement: Helps avoid glare/halo issues
Who is a Candidate?
- Adults over 18 with stable prescription
- People with myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism
- Healthy corneas with sufficient thickness
- No active eye diseases like glaucoma or keratoconus
- Not pregnant or nursing at the time of surgery
Benefits of LASIK
- Clear, sharp vision without glasses or lenses
- Quick procedure (about 15 minutes for both eyes)
- Fast recovery, most patients see within 24 hours
- Painless with minimal discomfort
- High success rate and long-lasting results
Risks of LASIK
LASIK is generally safe and effective, but some patients may experience temporary or rare side effects like:
- Dry eyes or irritation
- Halos, glare, or double vision at night
- Undercorrection or overcorrection
- Flap-related complications (rare)
- Regression of vision in some cases
Most issues are temporary and can be managed with timely follow-up and treatment.
