Free yourself from glasses and contact lenses with iLASIK & FemtoLASIK in Bratislava

You may be suitable for iLASIK or FemtoLASIK if you’re over 18, have a stable glasses prescription, and suffer from nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. Your corneas must be thick enough, and your eyes must be healthy. A detailed eye exam at our clinic in Bratislava will confirm your suitability. These procedures are typically ideal for people who want to be free of glasses and contacts and are not currently experiencing severe dry eye or corneal conditions.

iLASIK and FemtoLASIK are advanced laser eye surgeries that use femtosecond and excimer lasers to reshape the cornea and correct vision.

In FemtoLASIK, a femtosecond laser creates a thin flap in the cornea, which is then gently lifted. The underlying corneal tissue is reshaped with an excimer laser to match your specific vision needs. The flap is repositioned and heals naturally.

iLASIK is a version of FemtoLASIK that uses wavefront-guided technology for even greater customization. The entire procedure is bladeless, painless, and takes only a few minutes per eye. Most patients notice improved vision within 24 hours.

iLASIK & FemtoLASIK bieten viele Vorteile: schnelle Heilung, hohe Präzision und schmerzfreie Durchführung. Die meisten Patienten kehren nach einem Tag in den Alltag zurück – ohne Nähte.

The technology is highly personalised and offers long-term results. However, these treatments are not suitable for everyone.

People with thin corneas, very dry eyes, or certain medical conditions may be better suited for other procedures. There’s also a small risk of dry eyes or glare at night during the healing period.

iLASIK & FemtoLASIK sind sichere Verfahren, aber wie bei jeder Operation gibt es Risiken.

These include temporary dry eyes, glare or halos around lights, and very rarely, infection or vision regression.

The risk of serious complications is extremely low, especially when performed by experienced surgeons using modern equipment, as is the case at our clinic in Bratislava.

If iLASIK or FemtoLASIK isn’t right for you, there are other options.

LASEK and PRK are surface treatments suitable for thinner corneas. These take a bit longer to heal but are just as effective.

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) is ideal for people over 45 with age-related vision changes.

During your consultation, we’ll guide you through the best options for your eyes and your goals.

Both iLASIK and FemtoLASIK begin with a detailed eye examination in Bratislava to determine your suitability. Your eye will be mapped and measured using advanced diagnostics.

iLASIK uses wavefront-guided technology, meaning your treatment is tailored to even the smallest imperfections in your vision. On the day of surgery, your eye is numbed with drops. A femtosecond laser creates a thin flap in the cornea. Then, a wavefront-guided excimer laser reshapes the cornea based on your unique visual profile. The flap is gently repositioned and heals naturally. The treatment takes just a few minutes per eye, and most patients report significantly clearer vision by the next day.

FemtoLASIK also involves numbing the eye with drops and creating a corneal flap using a femtosecond laser. However, it uses a standard excimer laser to reshape the cornea based on your prescription. The procedure is quick, painless, and ideal for common refractive errors. Vision improvement is often noticeable within 24 hours.

After a short rest, you can go home the same day. A follow-up appointment is scheduled the next day.

Many patients see clearly within 24 hours of their iLASIK or FemtoLASIK procedure. Full visual stabilisation can take a few days. Long-term results are excellent, with most achieving 100% vision or better without glasses. Patients often say the treatment is life-changing, allowing them to live more freely and confidently.
