LASIK Surgery
How Does LASIK Work?
SBK Advanced LASIK procedures use state-of-the-art laser technology to create a thin flap in each of your corneas. Your corneas are the clear, top layers of your eye’s lenses. These flaps allow our surgeon to reshape the corneal tissue and correct your vision with a laser. Our laser is programmed to adjust the shape of your cornea to address your specific refractive error.
What Is Durrie Vision’s SBK LASIK Procedure?
Durrie Vision, a pioneer in laser vision surgery, performs sub-Bowman’s Keratomileusis (SBK) Advanced LASIK, the most advanced LASIK procedure available today.
Compared to previous LASIK methods, SBK Advanced LASIK is bladeless and creates an even thinner cornea flap than traditional LASIK. This approach corrects your vision with even more accuracy and speeds up recovery time.
Does LASIK Hurt?
LASIK does not hurt. Some patients notice slight pressure during the procedure. After your procedure, you may experience a slight burning sensation, light sensitivity, or a feeling that something is in your eye. These symptoms will go away, especially if you follow all treatment recommendations, including taking NSAIDs, like ibuprofen, and using artificial tears.
