Refractive Clinic
Refractive
In this clinic, the finest equipment and modern technology are used, and refractive defects are corrected using femto-LASIK rays, excimer lasers, or lens implants to treat these defects.
Femtosecond-assisted (Femto) laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) or Femto-LASIK is a type of laser eye surgery in which the cornea of the eye is reshaped to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.
Laser eye surgeries have been developed over the years to increase efficiency, decrease healing time, and have minimal post-operative complications and are considered now one of the safest and most accurate refractive surgeries.

•Yes you can, as long as you don’t have any other eye disorders that may cause any visual impairment (such as cataracts or retinal diseases). However, you should be aware that you will need near vision glasses afterward.
