Cataract Surgery
One of the most common eye surgeries, it involves removing the clouded lens and replacing it with an artificial lens.
LASIK Surgery
A popular refractive surgery that reshapes the cornea to improve vision.
Glaucoma Surgery
Helps to reduce intraocular pressure and prevent further damage to the optic nerve.

Treats conditions such as retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration.

Vision Center F.C. Frequently Asked Questions
While eye surgery is generally safe, there are potential risks such as infection, dry eyes, and changes in vision. Our surgeons will discuss all potential risks and benefits with you before the procedure.
Recovery times vary depending on the type of surgery. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days to a week. Full recovery and stabilization of vision may take several weeks.
Procedures like LASIK and PRK can significantly reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses. However, individual results vary, and some patients may still need vision correction for certain tasks.
During your consultation, our surgeons will perform a comprehensive eye exam, discuss your vision goals, review your medical history, and determine the best surgical options for your needs. You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions about the procedure.
While there are no strict age limits, the suitability for eye surgery depends on individual eye health and specific vision needs. Our surgeons will evaluate each patient on a case-by-case basis to determine eligibility.
