Looking For Specs Removal in Ghaziabad?

There are multiple technologies or procedures to get rid of  specs or glasses such as LASIK, SMILE, ICL & Contura.  LASIK laser surgery (Laser in situ Keratomileusis) is the most popular form of vision correction method used.

Yes, all specs removal or laser procedures are very safe and painless for spec removal as they are US-FDA approved procedures.

There are 97% chances of the people to be free from their spectacles. 3% will have mild change from their zero targeted correction due to diverse recovery patterns in different people but will have their decreased dependence on spectacles. After 3-6 months, a laser improvement can be tried to correct these people further. People of age 45, who have distance vision correction may require reading glasses.

Every surgery holds a surgical risk which is the reason Pre LASIK workup / Pre Tests are made so that any patient not eligible for the procedure can be ruled out. Some of the risks may include:

• Infections – Modern day antibiotics can simply control and tackle infections.
• Over or Under Correction – Can sometimes happen because of different healing responses of the body. This situation is rare and however if so happens, it can be efficiently managed by doing laser polishing after 6 months.

To be fit for laser surgery you have to meet some basic eligibility criteria

• Minimum 18 years old
• specs numbers must be stable for the last 6 months. Minor variations of 0. 25 D and 0.50 D are satisfactory.
• Ladies should not be pregnant or on breastfeed or 6 months post-pregnancy.
• You must not be consuming any medicines such as steroids.

After you meet these basic criteria, then you will have to undergo a Pre Lasik workup test which involves 6 to 7 different kinds of tests to eventually declare you the right candidate for laser surgery.

• Pre Lasik work up test involves a series of 6-7 tests that involve:
• Examining the power and pressures of your eye
• Monitoring your corneal thickness and any additional surface irregularities on the cornea.
• Examining for dry eyes
• Checking the Retina movement

This test normally takes 2 hours and if you use contact lenses it is best to stop them 3 days before you undergo these tests.

No laser surgery is flapless. Even surgeries like SMILE, which are said to be flap free, build a small flap. The only surgeries which are flap free are ICL, wherein a lens is inserted inside the eye that is implantation.

ICL i.e Implantable Collamer Lenses or phakic intraocular lenses are lenses implanted in the eye to work with the natural crystalline lens of the eye so that it can correct a refractive error with or without astigmatism. ICL can correct the big refractive error in the thin cornea.

The main contrast between ICL and traditional IOLs is the fact that an ICL operates in conjunction with the eye’s crystalline lens. It is even performed in a young patient who has no cataract. An IOL substitutes the eye’s natural lens during cataract surgery. IOLs are done to manage Cataract and ICL manage refractive error i.e helps in specs removal.

During the Small Incision Lenticule Extraction ( SMILE) procedure, the doctor uses eye drops to anaesthetize the eye. A speculum is then precisely placed on the lids to retain the eye open and to stop blinking. Using advanced femtosecond technology, the surgeon then performs a specific lenticule that is a thin and circular piece of tissue. The surgeon then eliminates the lenticule by the small incision that was formed in the eye. The process takes only 10-15 minutes.

A major difference between LASIK surgery and PRK is, LASIK creates a joint flap on the cornea. LASIK patients report minimum irritation and their vision stabilizes more swiftly than PRK. PRK involves operating the surface of the cornea. PRK recovery takes a few days with blurry vision and a bit of discomfort. It is often suggested when the patient’s cornea is extremely thin they must go for LASIK surgery.

Contoura Vision is a topography-guided laser system, which suggests that rather than just treating spectacle power it can also record and treat defects in individual corneas and optical systems, ending in a better focusing surface.

The procedure is also focused on the visual axis of the eye and giving better results compared to LASIK & SMILE. Studies have shown that patients who undergo Contoura treatment for vision correction have a 40% possibility of getting vision better than 6/6 vision is usually analysed the vision of normal people.

The outcomes of Laser on the cornea are permanent. Sometimes, internal changes within an eye may happen with age and these may have some effect on the all-over visual status.

Preparations before Laser Surgery :

• It is suggested to stop applying contact lens 1 week before surgery.
• Avoid applying perfumes, powder, makeup on eyes, and face on the day of Laser Surgery.
• Have a healthy and light meal before laser surgery.
• Apply the antibiotic eye drops in both the eyes as prescribed by your eye doctor, 6 times a day, one day before the procedure.
• Keep your eyes shut as much as possible after laser treatment on the surgery day.
• Wear dark glasses continuously during the day for the first 3 days. Also, It will serve as small protection against dust and exposure to sunlight.

When you plan to undergo any additional eye surgery it’s your responsibility to inform your doctor about previous surgery so that the treatment plan can be adjusted accordingly.

Recovery in procedures like Contoura Vision & LASIK is quick and from the very next day you can see everything crystal clear.

In procedures like SMILE and PRK, the healing is continuous and takes about 10 days to completely recover.

Some vitamin-rich diets like Carrot, pumpkin, sweet potato, etc. contain beta carotene, which is the source of vitamin A. 

A diet must contain an extreme amount of vitamin C in orange, amla, tomatoes, capsicum, etc. Before bedtime, eating 1 spoon of amla powder can also increase eyesight. Also, Vitamin-E is very necessary to include in your diet: sunflower seeds, almonds, peanuts, spinach, soya bean, kiwi, mango, Turnip, etc. Vitamin A is very essential in removing spectacles and keeping eyes healthy. Eat more Vitamin A rich foods in your diet.

Having a good diet with green vegetables and nutritious fruits will help in maintaining healthy eyes and body. That said, No medicine, diets, or process can help in completely getting rid of eye glasses or contact lenses.
