Millions of people around the world suffer from impaired vision and are reliant on glasses or contact lenses. While many don't mind this, there are plenty out there who wish this wasn't necessary. Now, thanks to modern technology, it isn't. LASIK eye surgery can turn the dream of seeing clearly without aid into reality, and what's more, this innovative laser technology is readily available in Thailand.
LASIK is a revolutionary surgical method to correct eyesight problems using modern laser technology. In a nutshell, it allows the precise and controlled removal of corneal tissue using its special laser, so reshaping the cornea and improving its focusing power. Because this procedure is highly effective, it has become very popular and its results can be felt immediately after surgery. Moreover, it only takes 15 minutes per eye and the results are permanent.
However, like with any surgical procedure, you need to fully understand what you are getting yourself into. So make sure you choose a place that provides you with a proper consultation with a doctor, and that you are informed both about the details of the technology and the procedures involved.
As you would expect, all of Bangkok's highly respected hospitals like Bumrungrad, Bangkok Hospital and Samitivej provide vision corrective surgery using LASIK technology, but there are also several centers specializing in this modern laser technology.
