LASIK Eye Surgery Dubai
LASIK Surgery is an ambulatory procedure that takes less than five minutes and is performed while you are fully awake. Despite its quick nature, it is essential to have someone assist you after the surgery.Lasik eye surgery is the most well-known and widely performed laser refractive surgery to correct vision issues. Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK Procedure) can serve as an alternative to glasses or contact lenses. A specialized cutting laser is used during lasik eye surgery Dubai to reshape the cornea and enhance vision. The cornea refracts light onto the retina at the back of the eye for those with normal vision. However, with nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), or astigmatism, light is refracted incorrectly, leading to blurred vision. Glasses or contact lenses can correct vision, but lasik for vision improvement offers a permanent solution by reshaping the cornea.
The LASIK Procedure only requires topical anesthesia, with numbing eye drops applied before the treatment to ensure comfort. Under the laser, the eye surgeon creates a thin corneal flap, accesses the underlying cornea, and reshapes it to correct vision imperfections. The flap is then repositioned, allowing natural healing. The procedure is performed one eye at a time.
Why It’s Done
To fix one of these vision problems, LASIK surgery may be an option:
- Nearsightedness (Myopia): Light rays focus in front of the retina and distort distant vision when the eyeball is slightly longer than average or when the cornea curves too sharply. You can see objects very clearly that are similar, but not objects that are far away.
- Farsightedness (Hyperopia): Light focuses behind the retina instead of on it when you have a shorter than normal eyeball or a cornea that is too flat. This makes close vision, and distant vision at times, blurred.
- Astigmatism: The effect is astigmatism, which disrupts the focus of close and distant vision when the cornea curves or flattens unevenly.
If you wear glasses or contact lenses and experience any of the above conditions, consult a doctor to determine if affordable lasik surgery is the right choice for you.

FAQ’s
Frequently Asked Questions
If you still have questions about LASIK treatment, have a look at out FAQ or give us a call and schedule a consultation with an expert!
LASIK eye surgery became popular in 2001, but its origins trace back to the 1980s when the excimer laser was discovered to reshape corneal tissue without scarring. Since then, LASIK eye surgery Dubai has evolved into a leading vision correction solution worldwide.
Choose a surgeon with expertise in corneal treatments. A skilled LASIK surgery Dubai specialist should assess long-term vision health and address any minor corneal issues before recommending treatment.
Dry Eyes: Use prescribed eye drops only.
Pain/Discomfort: Mild discomfort is normal. Use prescribed antibiotics and pain relievers.
Imbalanced Vision: Vision may fluctuate before stabilizing.
Glare: Temporary glare may occur but should fade over time.
Although this is rare with LASIK treatment, it does happen. You will need to go in for regular check-ups so that your doctor can keep tabs on you and see how you are progressing. If there is no improvement, your doctors will conduct a number of tests to see what the issue is and why the surgery has not helped. Following this, they will book you in for another procedure to help improve your situation. Although rare, it is not unheard of as some need surgery twice to rectify the problem depending on how severe it is.
As with any surgery, risks exist, such as dry eyes, vision changes, or flap complications. Choosing an experienced LASIK surgeon in Dubai minimizes these risks.
Must be 18+ with stable vision for at least one year.
No severe eye conditions like glaucoma or cataracts.
Adequate corneal thickness.
The LASIK procedure takes 10-15 minutes per eye. Costs vary based on the technique and clinic, and most insurance plans do not cover it. Check with your provider for possible coverage.
