Hello,
Please schedule an appointment with Dr. Kashfi or Dr. Alireza Peyman for guidance.
Usually, you may experience pain, burning, or watering for two to three days, or at most for a week, but it varies from person to person. Some individuals can resume their daily activities the day after the surgery.
If you had a PRK surgery, continue using Cyplex and Betamethasone drops as long as the contact lens is in your eye. After the lens is removed, you will be instructed on how to continue using them. Artificial tears are used if you experience dryness in your eyes (3-4 times a day).
Hello,
For up to a week after the surgery, your vision will be blurry due to the lens. Even after the lens is removed, your vision may still be blurry. It takes about 3 to 6 months for the vision to fully stabilize.
Hello, good day.
If corneal ectasia is confirmed, LASIK is not possible. The lenses used in eye surgery are placed in a location that is not related to color and are colorless.
Hello,
If your near vision problem occurred after the age of 40 and is due to presbyopia, there is currently no definitive solution or surgery to correct presbyopia.
Hello,
It is better to consult your surgeon for precaution.
Hello,
It is better to consult your surgeon for precaution.
Hello,
Your dry eye condition may have worsened, and it is typically recommended to visit a corneal specialist for further evaluation and treatment.
If it is limited, surgery can be done.
Although this idea is relatively common among people and even some respected obstetricians, it has no scientific basis. From an ophthalmological perspective, natural childbirth poses no contraindication or harm to individuals with nearsightedness or other eye disorders, whether before or after surgery.
Eye drops should continue if they are absolutely necessary, despite potential side effects. However, it seems that the inflammation in your eye may not be serious, and therefore, drops like naphazoline can be irritating in the long term, although they do not cause severe or serious problems.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; as long as your eye prescription is stable, LASIK surgery can be performed after creating a file and ensuring the tests are suitable.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; the likelihood of serious damage such as blindness or low vision for patients whose cases are deemed suitable for surgery is very minimal, and between 1 to 3 percent of patients may experience complications from the surgery.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; childbirth and its type have no connection to eye surgery. During and after pregnancy, everyone usually experiences some vision decline, which resolves after a few months.
Thank you!
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; For some patients, there is a choice, and they can decide between both procedures. However, for some patients, one type of surgery is preferred, or only one type may be suitable, and in these cases, it is noted in the file by the doctor.
Hello, in Femto-LASIK surgery, the corneal flap is removed with a laser, and the laser is applied to the cornea, after which the flap is placed back in its original position. In PRK surgery, a thinner layer of the cornea (epithelium) is manually removed, the laser is applied to the cornea, and then a bandage lens is placed for healing. In Femto-LASIK, recovery is faster, and the patient experiences less pain and burning. Both procedures are commonly performed worldwide, and the type of surgery is determined based on the eye prescription, images, and tests. Typically, Femto-LASIK is performed for higher prescriptions, but the patient’s images and other examinations must also be considered.
In advanced PRK, a smaller amount of corneal thickness is removed, and the remaining steps are the same.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; You must have a complete file, including topography images, vision testing, and the doctor’s examination, in order to determine the appropriate type of surgery for you.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; The duration of these surgeries is short. PRK surgery takes about 10 minutes, and Femto-LASIK takes about 15 to 20 minutes. There is no need for general anesthesia, and anesthetic drops are used. During the procedure, patients usually do not feel pain. The recovery time varies among patients, but typically in PRK, it takes about 3-4 days to a week, and in Femto-LASIK, it takes about 2-3 days. After the procedure, there may be pain, burning, and tearing, but these symptoms are natural and the recovery process continues during this time.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; Both procedures are commonly used worldwide for correcting refractive errors, and the type of surgery depends on vision testing, topography images, and the doctor’s examination. Generally, Femto-LASIK is recommended for higher prescriptions with suitable corneal thickness.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; ADV PRK, Trans PRK, and Femto LASIK are different types of refractive surgeries, and each has its own specific characteristics and applications. For accurate information regarding costs and details about each procedure, it is best to consult with the clinic or healthcare provider directly.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; If the eye drops do not enter your throat, they do not break the fast.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; Both procedures are commonly used worldwide for correcting refractive errors, and the type of surgery depends on vision testing, topography images, and the doctor’s examination. Generally, Femto-LASIK is recommended for higher prescriptions with suitable corneal thickness. This thickness is not suitable for the surgery, but the file still needs to be reviewed.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; Blurry vision, especially when a bandage lens is in place, is normal. It is common to experience blurry vision for up to 2 to 3 months, and sometimes up to 6 months after PRK surgery, and it gradually improves over time. However, for peace of mind, you can have a follow-up visit.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; Your eye prescription alone is not sufficient for making a decision. A complete file, including vision testing, topography, and the doctor’s examination, must be available.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; Provided that your prescription is stable, and after completing the necessary tests, you can undergo LASIK surgery. From an ophthalmological perspective, once you have used glasses or contact lenses for 6 months to 1 year and are satisfied with your vision, your prescription is considered stable, and you can consider surgery at the age of 18 to 20.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; The level of dryness in your eyes needs to be assessed, as contact lens use is typically associated with dryness, which can sometimes be alleviated with artificial tear drops.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; It is generally recommended that patients avoid applying makeup inside the eyes for up to a month to prevent contamination.
Hello and thank you for your cooperation; The type of delivery has no connection to eye surgery. During and after pregnancy, most people usually experience some vision changes, which resolve after a few months. Some ophthalmologists believe that retinal pressure should be measured for high prescriptions to determine the type of delivery, but most ophthalmologists do not see a connection between childbirth and eye surgery. Light sensitivity is present in the first few days after the surgery, but it improves and returns to normal conditions afterward.
