LASIK
From 2,100,000 KRW/ surgery
VisuMax LASIK An advanced vision correction procedure that uses the ZEISS VisuMax femtosecond laser to create a precise corneal flap, followed by an excimer laser to reshape the cornea and correct refractive errors. Through comprehensive eye examinations, including corneal thickness, corneal shape, and refractive status, the procedure is customized to each patient’s individual ocular condition. - ZEISS VisuMax Femtosecond Laser - Precise, Customized Vision Correction - Rapid Recovery and Return to Daily Activities
Surgery Overview
VisuMax LASIK
An advanced LASIK procedure using the ultra-precise femtosecond laser “VisuMax” to minimize the incision area. Compared with conventional LASIK, it provides more precise incisions, reducing pain and corneal damage for faster recovery and greater safety.
Four Key Benefits of VisuMax LASIK
✓ Stronger adhesion and stability with a special 135º incision
✓ A smooth flap created through ultra-precise ablation
✓ A comfortable procedure with reduced pain and dry-eye discomfort
✓ Fast recovery and return to daily life the next day
VisuMax LASIK Procedure
❶ Comprehensive Examination
Personalized data are analyzed for safe surgery by measuring corneal thickness, curvature, pupil size, refractive errors, and more in 0.01 mm increments.
❷ Femtosecond Laser Flap Creation
A uniform, thin corneal flap is created using the VisuMax femtosecond laser. Laser ablation produces a smooth flap to minimize corneal damage.
❸ Excimer Laser Vision Correction
The Corneal Stroma beneath the flap is precisely corrected with an excimer laser to accurately correct Myopia, Hyperopia, and Astigmatism.
❹ Flap Repositioning and Stabilization
Once the flap is naturally repositioned, it adheres naturally without sutures, and vision becomes clearer immediately after surgery.
Conventional LASIK vs. VisuMax LASIK
VisuMax offers a level of safety, precision, and recovery that conventional LASIK cannot match.
Conventional LASIK
✓ Fixation method:
✓ Laser spacing:
✓ Procedure: A corneal flap is created using a microkeratome, followed by Vision Correction with an excimer laser
✓ Surgical equipment: Blade for creating a corneal flap
✓ Corneal flap thickness variation: Significant variation may occur depending on the practitioner or machine
✓ Subconjunctival hemorrhage: Possible bleeding due to conjunctival fixation
✓ Recovery period: Approximately 2–3 days
✓ Suitable candidates: People with mild to moderate Myopia and thick corneas
VisuMax LASIK
✓ Fixation method:
✓ Laser spacing:
✓ Procedure: A corneal flap is created using a femtosecond laser, followed by Vision Correction with an excimer laser
✓ Surgical equipment: VisuMax laser LASIK
✓ Corneal flap thickness variation: Can be customized to the desired thickness
✓ Subconjunctival hemorrhage: No bleeding due to corneal fixation
✓ Recovery period: Approximately 1–2 days
✓ Suitable candidates: The broadest range of candidates, including those with high Myopia, thin corneas, and small eyes
