The Eye Diseases Centre of Liv Hospital offers treatment of a wide range of eye diseases, including cataract surgery, refractive surgery, keratoconus, and aesthetic surgery around the eyes.
The goal of refractive surgery is to reduce dependence on glasses and contact lenses by reforming the cornea. Light passes through the lenses and the cornea focuses into the retina, a thin tissue layer at the back of the eye. If light does not enter the retina properly, your vision is cloudy and you have refractive error. Depending on the extent of this refractive error and the physical qualities of your eye. The doctors at Liv Hospital will recommend a specific procedure to give you the best opportunity for correction.
Liv Hospital Eye Clinic uses state-of-the-art excimer lasers to reform the curvature of the retina and reduce or cure the most common vision disorders such as myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, as well as some degenerative disorders.
The Clinic offers treatments using a variety of lasers and intraocular lenses to cure patients whose conditions are not amenable to the usual laser methods.
Our international patients are thoroughly evaluated to determine which of the available methods of refractive surgery is best for them. These include:
- Phakic intraocular lenses
- Intracorneal rings or Intacs implants
- LASIK with IntraLase
- Wavefront/Zyoptix
- LASEK
- Conductive Keratoplasty (CK)
- Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK)
