The field of ophthalmology continues to evolve to offer you the best solutions for your eye problems. At Clínica Nivaria, we have state-of-the-art ophthalmological equipment so your eyes can regain their functionality quickly and painlessly thanks to refractive surgery.
What is refractive surgery?
This procedure is used to correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. One of the most widely used and effective methods is LASIK laser surgery, which can reshape the cornea effectively and precisely.
What are the characteristics of myopia surgery?
When the curvature of the cornea is too pronounced, focusing errors occur. Correcting this anomaly allows the eye to focus correctly again, as the images you see will be reflected more directly onto your retina.
The result of the operation is always satisfactory and allows the patient to easily recover their visual capacity.
What does farsightedness surgery involve?
The process is the exact opposite of the one explained above. It involves altering the curvature of the cornea to improve focusing. The idea is to make this part of the eye less flat, allowing images to be reflected correctly onto the retina more easily. This technique has proven effective in numerous cases.
Details of the operation to correct astigmatism
This corneal deformity is completely irregular and doesn't follow a set pattern. Undergoing this surgery will reshape the cornea to give it a more uniform appearance. This will improve your vision and alleviate some symptoms associated with this condition, such as headaches.
What type of people are potential recipients of refractive surgery?
If you fall into any of the following groups, this surgical solution may be what you're looking for:
- You regularly wear glasses or contact lenses and don't want to continue depending on them.
- You don't have any eye disease, but you would like to improve your visual ability.
- You don't care about the side effects, which last a few days, as long as you get your sight back.
- Do you suffer from any of the ailments listed above and want to overcome them with a highly effective method?
The process is painless, and by following the advice of one of our specialists, you'll soon make a full recovery. Being able to say goodbye to your glasses or contact lenses is always a symbolic gesture that can help you regain your self-esteem and begin a new chapter.
