Femto-LASIK

Femto LASIK in Jaipur, Femtosecond Laser for Refractive Errors In Jaipur At Pink City Eye & Retina Center

In today’s world, where precision and safety are everything, Femto LASIK has become one of the most trusted choices for permanent vision correction. If you’re exploring laser eye surgery options in Jaipur, you’ll likely come across Femto LASIK in Jaipur, also known as Femtosecond LASIK. This advanced, blade-free procedure is a significant evolution from traditional LASIK surgery.

At Pink City Eye & Retina Center, Jaipur, we specialize in this sophisticated technique to help people who are tired of depending on glasses or contact lenses. Whether you’re dealing with myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), or astigmatism, Femto LASIK offers a safer, more precise way to restore clear vision with quicker healing and reduced risks. We’re proud to bring this globally recognized technology to our patients right here in Jaipur.

What Is Femto LASIK?

Femto LASIK, short for Femtosecond Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis, is an advanced form of laser vision correction that replaces the traditional surgical blade with a femtosecond laser—a high-speed, ultra-precise laser that operates at one quadrillionth of a second. This laser is used to create a very thin flap in the cornea with incredible precision.

Here’s how the process works:

  1. The femtosecond laser creates a flap on the outer layer of the cornea. This is done without any mechanical blades, making it a 100% bladeless and more controlled process.
  2. Once the flap is lifted, an excimer laser is used to carefully reshape the inner layers of the cornea. This reshaping corrects the specific refractive error—whether it’s nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.
  3. After the reshaping is complete, the flap is gently repositioned to its original place. It naturally adheres to the eye without the need for stitches, and healing begins immediately.

Who is the Ideal Candidate for Femto LASIK?

At Pink City Eye and Retina Center, Jaipur, we often meet patients eager to experience the freedom from glasses or contact lenses. One of the most advanced and trusted solutions we offer is Femto LASIK, also known as Femtosecond Laser Eye Surgery. But before deciding on the procedure, the most important question is – Are you the ideal candidate for Femto LASIK?

✅ You’re likely a good candidate for Femto LASIK in Jaipur if:

🔹 You’re 18 or older:

Femto LASIK is approved only for adults, once vision has fully developed.

🔹 Your vision is stable for at least a year:

If your power keeps changing or you’re on medications like steroids or hormones, LASIK might need to wait.

🔹 Your corneas are healthy and thick enough:

Using advanced diagnostics at our Jaipur clinic, we check your corneal health. If it’s too thin, we’ll suggest safer alternatives.

🔹 You have no serious eye or health issues:

Conditions like dry eye, corneal scars, uncontrolled diabetes, or autoimmune disorders can affect healing.

🔹 No past refractive eye surgeries:

Previous laser surgeries may affect your eligibility, but we’ll assess this during your eye check-up.

🔹 You’re ready to live without glasses or lenses:

Whether you have nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, or even presbyopia — Femto LASIK in Jaipur can be a life-changing option. We also offer Presbyond Femto LASIK to correct both near and distance vision.

Femto LASIK Procedure in Jaipur at Pink City Eye & Retina Center

At Pink City Eye & Retina Center, Jaipur, we offer advanced Femto LASIK surgery using a Femtosecond Laser for Refractive Errors in Jaipur. This bladeless technique is safer, more precise, and promotes faster healing compared to traditional LASIK. If you’re struggling with glasses or contact lenses, Femto LASIK can give you the freedom of clear vision.

Here’s a simple, step-by-step explanation of what happens before, during, and after the procedure.

1) Before the Procedure (Pre-op Prep)

  • Confirming suitability: We run a comprehensive eye check—your spectacle power, corneal thickness and shape (topography), tear film, pupil size, and overall eye health.
  • Medical review & counselling: We review your health history (e.g., diabetes, autoimmune issues), discuss realistic outcomes, and explain every step so you know what to expect from Femto LASIK in Jaipur.
  • Final planning: Based on your measurements, we program the femtosecond laser to create a precise, personalized corneal flap and set your excimer laser plan to correct myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism.
  • Day-of instructions: Come with clean eyelids (no makeup/cream), arrange an escort home, and follow any guidance on contact lens washout if you wear lenses.

2) During the Procedure (In the Laser Suite)

  • Getting you comfortable: You lie on a reclining bed. We clean your lids, place gentle numbing drops (no injections), and use a soft eyelid holder (speculum) so you don’t need to worry about blinking.

  • Flap creation with femtosecond laser:

    • A suction ring steadies the eye for a few seconds.
    • The femtosecond laser creates a thin, exact corneal flap—this is the bladeless part of Femtosecond Laser for Refractive Errors in Jaipur. You might feel pressure but no pain.

  • Vision correction with excimer laser:

    • We lift the flap and ask you to look at a fixation light while the excimer laser reshapes the cornea micrometer by micrometer according to your customized plan.
    • You may hear soft clicks or notice a brief odor—both are normal.

  • Flap reposition & safety check:

    • We gently reposition the flap; it seals naturally without stitches.
    • We hydrate the cornea, check alignment, and repeat the same steps for the fellow eye.

  • Total time: Typically 15–30 minutes for both eyes. Throughout, our team talks you through each moment so you feel calm and informed at Pink City Eye & Retina Center, Jaipur.

3) After the Procedure (Immediate Recovery & Care)

  • Right after: You rest for a short while, receive protective eye shields, and we review your eye-drop schedule (antibiotic + lubricant ± anti-inflammatory). Expect mild watering, light sensitivity, or blur on day one—this is normal.

  • First 24–48 hours: Vision usually sharpens quickly. Keep shields on while sleeping, do not rub your eyes, limit screens/bright light, and use drops exactly as advised. Wear sunglasses outdoors in Jaipur to reduce glare and dust exposure.

  • Activity precautions: No eye makeup for ~1 week; avoid swimming, dusty areas, and strenuous workouts for ~2–4 weeks; keep water out of the eyes for the first week.

  • Follow-ups at our clinic: We see you the next day and as scheduled to monitor healing after Femto LASIK in Jaipur and fine-tune care if needed. Temporary dryness, halos, or night glare can occur and typically improve as the surface stabilizes.

Benefits of Femto LASIK in Jaipur at Pink City Eye and Retina Center

If you’re considering Femto LASIK in Jaipur, you’re probably wondering — What makes it better than traditional LASIK? At Pink City Eye and Retina Center, we believe in helping you make an informed choice. Let us quickly walk you through the key advantages of this advanced, bladeless eye surgery.

Bladeless & Highly Precise

Unlike traditional methods, Femto LASIK uses a femtosecond laser instead of a blade, allowing unmatched precision in creating the corneal flap. This leads to safer outcomes and better visual accuracy.

Faster Healing & Recovery

Thanks to its gentle, no-blade approach, most of our patients in Jaipur return to daily activities within a day or two. Minimal irritation, quicker recovery — that's the power of Femtosecond Laser in Jaipur.

Greater Comfort During and After Surgery

The entire procedure is virtually painless. You might feel mild pressure, but most patients report little to no discomfort during or after the surgery.

Customized for Your Eyes

Every eye is unique. With Femto LASIK, we tailor the treatment based on your exact corneal shape and vision error — whether it’s myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism. This leads to better, long-lasting results.

Better Night Vision & Fewer Side Effects

Patients often report clearer vision at night with fewer issues like halos or glare compared to traditional LASIK. Plus, the precision reduces the risk of flap complications and dry eyes.

Long-Term Stability

Once your vision stabilizes after surgery, it tends to remain clear and consistent for years. Femto LASIK is not just about short-term results — it's a long-term investment in your vision.

Risks & Side Effects of Femto LASIK

At Pink City Eye and Retina Center, we offer Femto LASIK in Jaipur as a safe and advanced option for vision correction. While the procedure is highly precise and blade-free, like any surgery, it may come with some temporary side effects and rare risks — and it’s important to know them before deciding.

Here’s what we explain to every patient considering Femtosecond Laser in Jaipur:

Common & Temporary Side Effects

These are usually part of the normal healing process and fade within days or weeks:

  • Dry eyes: A temporary drop in tear production may cause dryness or irritation. Lubricating eye drops usually help.
  • Light sensitivity: You may feel discomfort in bright light or see halos and glare, especially at night.
  • Fluctuating vision: Slight blurriness or changes in clarity are common and typically stabilize as your eyes heal.
  • Mild discomfort: A burning or gritty sensation may occur right after surgery but settles within a few hours.

While rare, these side effects can occur and may need closer follow-up:

  • Undercorrection or overcorrection of vision
  • Flap-related issues like wrinkles or dislocation
  • Night vision disturbances, including halos or starbursts
  • Infection or inflammation (very rare with proper care)
  • Rainbow glare: Light scattering due to flap surface irregularities

  • Opaque Bubble Layer (OBL): Gas bubbles may affect laser precision, but this usually resolves on its own
  • Transient Light Sensitivity Syndrome (TLSS): Increased light sensitivity that may appear days later — usually treatable with eye drops
