A popular vision correction surgery providing independence from glasses and contact lenses is LASIK or Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis. At Pristine Eye Hospitals in Hyderabad, we specialize in advanced LASIK procedures, ensuring safe, effective, and customised treatments for every patient.
What is LASIK Eye Surgery?
How does LASIK Work?

LASIK reshapes the cornea to direct light precisely onto the retina, producing clear vision.

LASIK can be a realistic alternative for those over 40, and even for patients who have residual or left over spectacle power following cataract surgery. A thorough assessment of your specific situation can determine if LASIK is right for you.
Monovision LASIK: The Intelligent Fix for Presbyopia
Presbyopia (age-related near vision loss), the disorder in which our eyes naturally lose their capacity to concentrate on close objects, results from ageing. An advanced laser vision correction method called monovision LASIK deliberately changes each eye to improve both near and distant vision.
How Does Monovision LASIK Work?
The non-dominant eye is corrected for improved near vision
The dominant eye is corrected for excellent distance vision.
The brain combines the two inputs perfectly, so lowering the demand for reading glasses.
Who Can Benefit from Monovision LASIK?
Individuals over 40 experiencing difficulty seeing near objects or reading.
Those comfortable with blended vision adaptation.
People wishing to lessen dependence on progressives, bifocals or reading glasses.
Adapting for Monovision
To facilitate better adaption, some patients try monovision using contact lenses first to be sure they are comfortable before choosing permanent LASIK
At Pristine Eye Hospitals, our skilled LASIK and contact lens specialists analyze your vision and lifestyle to determine if monovision LASIK is the perfect decision for you.
