Our eyes are one of the most important parts of our body, and, therefore, need the most careful care and attention. That's why they deserve unconventional personalized treatment. Thanks to the OptiLASIK® system, which is now being used for the first time in Turkey at LIV HOSPITAL, problems with glasses and contact lenses are a thing of the past. By combining two state-of-the-art laser devices, the WaveLight EX500 excimer laser and the WaveLight FS200 femtosecond laser, the system is now used at Liv Hospital to correct various types of eye defects.
Laser Eye Surgery
In recent years, there has been a wide variety in the range of laser eye surgery and vision correction. Initially, laser treatment was used to correct nearsightedness (myopia), but nowadays many other conditions are successfully treated, including farsightedness (hypermetropia), myopia, superficial corneal roughening caused by disease or trauma, corneal staining, and it is also used in corneal transplants and to correct post-transplant defects.
The combination of the WaveLight EX500 excimer laser and the WaveLight FS200 femtosecond laser, OptiLASIK® provides fast, reliable, safe and 100% pain-free solutions. After forming a flap on your eye in as little as six seconds, OptiLASIK® reduces the risks of post-operative risks and complications. And the system does not just correct eye defects, it does so with non-operative technology. Risky and painful incisions are a thing of the past.
Personalized Treatment
The WaveLight EX500 system is being used for the first time in Turkey at LIV HOSPITAL. Naturally, this requires an experienced medical team of specialists trained in the use of the system's technological infrastructure and applications in order to select the right laser program for each individual patient's specific eye disease.
Patients' specific requirements are determined through the use of state-of-the-art equipment; there is nothing like a ‘standard treatment’. The surgical intervention is prepared according to the specific needs of each individual. Only clinics that place the patient's benefit as their priority, thanks to their specialist doctors trained in the application of the latest technology, can achieve the best results. With its institutional structure, its laser systems and its team of experienced specialists, LIV HOSPITAL meets the necessary requirements.
