Laser eye surgery
The difference is clear

For many people, laser surgery is a fast and convenient way to get rid of glasses or contact lenses.

We now offer three laser eye surgery processes, LASIK, PRK and SMILE Pro®. These procedures are used on a range of refractive errors including nearsightedness and farsightedness or astigmatism.
