Femto LASIK: Advanced Flap-Based Laser Correction
What is Femto LASIK?
Femto LASIK is one of the most widely performed laser vision correction procedures worldwide. It uses two types of lasers to reshape the cornea and improve vision.
How It Works
01
A femtosecond laser creates a thin flap in the cornea
02
The flap is lifted
03
An excimer laser reshapes the cornea
04
The flap is repositioned naturally
Benefits

Considerations
- Requires creation of a corneal flap
- Not suitable for very thin corneas
