Femto LASIK is one of the most efficient and advanced bladeless laser eye treatments. The surgeon can easily correct refractive errors between -12 and +6 D using this procedure. The corneal flap preparation is the main difference between standard LASIK and Femto-LASIK. The flap is cut with a microkeratome (small cutting blade) in LASIK, while the flap is cut with a femtosecond laser in Femto-LASIK (a bladeless technology). Femto LASIK is ideal for those with relatively higher prescriptions or thin corneas because of its unsurpassed accuracy. Its unique bevel-in flap edge creates a more accurate and secure corneal flap and improves the healing process compared to older forms of the microkeratome.
Who Performs Femto LASIK?
An Eye Surgeon who
specializes in laser eye surgery performs Femto LASIK.
Types of Femto LASIK?
The types of Femto
LASIK are given below:
·
Femto Lasik for Myopia: When
the eyeball is a little longer than normal and the cornea curves sharply, you
have myopia. As a result, you can see things closer to you but cannot identify
objects that are further away.
· Femto Lasik for Hyperopia: The
eyeball is shorter than usual in this case, and the vision is blurry and unable
to focus properly.
· Femto Lasik for Astigmatism. In this, your cornea
flattens abnormally, which causes your vision to blur.
Preparations Before Femto LASIK?
·
Before your Femto
LASIK surgery, you should meet with your surgeon to discuss your goals, any
risk factors, and desired outcomes. Your surgeon should give you an honest
assessment of the procedure's risks, benefits, and costs. Depending on the type
of contact lenses you wear, you may be asked to remove them for 1-3 weeks.
·
Your surgeon would
perform a complete exam and scan of your eye the day before your procedure.
This scan will guide the laser.
·
You should check with
your employer to ensure that your job obligations will not prevent you from
having refractive surgery. You should also consider the procedure's cost, any
insurance coverage or discounts, and how you plan to pay for it.
·
Make sure that someone
is available to drive you to and from the hospital. It would help if you
refrained from applying cosmetics, creams, or lotions near your eyes for at
least one day before surgery.
How Long Does Femto LASIK Take?
Femto LASIK takes no
more than 30 minutes to complete for each eye.
Risks Associated With Femto LASIK?
Femto LASIK has risks,
just like any other surgical procedure. Every LASIK procedure carries the
following risks:
·
Ongoing vision symptoms
such as halos around lights
·
Permanent vision loss
·
Treatment might be
minimally effective or not help at all
·
Reduced effectiveness
over the time
Complications specific to Femto LASIK include:
·
Opaque
bubble layer: This happens when gas
bubbles build up in the flap and obstruct the laser's ability to work properly.
·
Transient
light sensitivity syndrome: This
problem can appear days or weeks after surgery, causing extreme light
sensitivity and vision issues. This condition may be treated with topical
steroids.
·
Rainbow
glare: Tiny
irregularities on the back of the flap created during surgery cause this. When
looking at a white light source, it can cause colored bands of light to appear
in the field of vision.
