Laser eye operations

Statistics show that laser eye operations produce excellent results: in 60% of patients remain defect to 0.25 diopters, in 30% of patients maintained up to 1 diopter defect, 10% - slightly more than 1 diopter. The result is long-lasting operation - remains until old age. The study also confirms low risk associated with these activities - about 1%, in good clinics, it falls to the per mille. Possible complications include postoperative infections, transient symptoms of "dry eye". The effect of treatment largely depends on the ability of healing of the eye.

Regardless of the technique of execution, the treatment itself usually lasts a short time (in minutes) and is performed on an outpatient basis. People suffering from cataract, glaucoma, inflammatory eye disease, with progressive visual defect, receiving steroids, with pacemakers, pregnant and lactating women can’t be treated. The contraindication is also for people younger than 21 years (no eye disease stabilization). Laser vision correction procedures are not that expensive, for example EPI-LASIK costs three thousand PLN.
