Laser eye surgery

EuroEyes doctors eliminate vision defects to make a patient see without glasses and lenses. Ophthalmologists specialize in the treatment of hyperopia, myopia, astigmatism (changing of the lens or cornea shape), and presbyopia.

After an eye examination, a doctor determines which method will most effectively and safely help a patient improve vision.

ReLEx Smile — an innovative method of vision correction

ReLEx smile is a minimally invasive laser eye correction that allows you to improve vision up to 10 diopters. Laser affects an eye through a micro-incision up to 2 mm and does not require removal of the corneal layer. That's why the eye recovers faster than after other correction methods.

ReLEx Smile is suitable for patients with a high degree of myopia and astigmatism, as well as for patients with dry eye syndrome. The duration of the procedure takes only 32 seconds for 1 eye.

Femto-LASIK — the gold standard of vision correction

Doctors have been performing the Femto-LASIK eye correction for over 10 years. Ophthalmologists remove the upper corneal layer to treat the required part of the eye with a laser.

Femto-LASIK is an advanced type of LASIK technology. The main difference between these 2 techniques is the method of corneal incision. Conducting the LASIK eye surgery, ophthalmologists use a scalpel and they make an incision with a laser during the Femto-LASIK surgery. So the removed flap is smoother and the eye heals faster.

Intraocular lens implantation

There are 2 types of intraocular lenses implantation — replacement of the natural lens with an artificial one (multifocal or trifocal lenses) and the implantation of an artificial lens over the natural lens (phakic ICL).

Trifocal / Multifocal Lens
 

These are the artificial lenses with multiple focus points that allow you to see at different distances.

Trifocal lenses are implanted for life. They are not visible. Such lenses allow you to get rid of myopia, hyperopia, cataracts, and astigmatism.

ICL lenses
 

Ophthalmologists place a contact lens ICL between their own lens and the iris. It is completely transparent.

The ICL contact lens allows patients with a high degree of myopia  and hyperopia (from +3 diopters) to see well.
