LASIK at IOES: A Clearer Future, Rooted in Trust


See Life Differently — On Your Terms

If glasses or contact lenses have been part of your daily routine for years, it can feel like visual freedom is always just out of reach. At the Institute of Eye Surgery (IOES), we offer something more than a procedure — we offer a partnership.

LASIK is a safe, effective laser vision correction option that can help you see clearly without lenses. But more importantly, it’s a decision we’ll make together. Because at IOES, we believe in a two-way relationship — built on trust, transparency, and what’s genuinely best for you.


Why Patients Choose IOES

When you choose IOES, you’re choosing a relationship — not just a result.

  • You’ll meet your surgeon during your consultation
  • You’ll receive honest, personalised recommendations, even if that means LASIK isn’t the best option
  • You’ll be supported by a team that listens to your concerns and values your comfort
  • You’ll have access to world-class diagnostics and technology to ensure your care is tailored and precise

Transparency is core to everything we do. We don’t believe in high-pressure decisions — we believe in informed, empowered patients.


What Is LASIK?

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a time-tested, outpatient procedure that gently reshapes the cornea using advanced laser technology. This allows light to focus properly on the retina, correcting vision problems like:

  • Nearsightedness (myopia)
  • Farsightedness (hyperopia)
  • Astigmatism

Most patients notice clearer vision within 24 hours — and many are back to their daily lives the very next day.

How LASIK Works:

  1. Numbing drops are applied for comfort
  2. A precise flap is made on the cornea
  3. A second laser reshapes the underlying corneal tissue
  4. The flap is gently repositioned to heal naturally

The entire process takes just 10 minutes per eye.

Is LASIK Right for You?

Not every patient is the same — and not every patient is right for LASIK. That’s why we take the time to get to know you first. You may be a good candidate if:

If LASIK isn’t the safest or most effective option for you, we’ll tell you — and we’ll walk you through alternatives like EVO ICL or Custom Lens Replacement (CLR). Our job isn’t to sell you a procedure. It’s to help you make the right decision for your eyes.
