As more and more people rely on prescription glasses and contact lenses from an early age, the demand for LASIK and PRK eye surgery has also increased.

Laser eye surgery eliminates the need for prescription glasses and contact lenses and gives you naturally clear vision. If you want to end the daily struggle of wearing glasses and contact lenses, LASIK and PRK eye surgery in Middle Park may be your solution. Laser eye surgery is a life-changing procedure and allows you to live your active life to the fullest. Whether you regularly participate in sports or work for long hours in front of a computer screen, laser eye surgery gives you the convenience of spectacle independence.

LASIK Eye Surgery in Middle Park

As the most popular form of laser surgery, LASIK eye surgery in Middle Park can correct a wide range of prescriptions, such as short-sightedness (myopia), long-sightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism.

This painless procedure involves creating and then lifting a flap to reshape the cornea underneath it, correcting for your prescription. At the end of the procedure, the flap is put back down. The surgery has little downtime, and you will experience full vision recovery as soon as the following day.

PRK Laser Eye Surgery in Middle Park

PRK eye surgery in Middle Park is recommended to those not eligible for LASIK, either due to thin or unusually shaped corneas or severe dry eyes problems. It is also known as Advanced Surface Laser Ablation (ASLA). It involves reshaping the cornea directly on the surface without creating a flap. This completely no-touch technique of reshaping the cornea is ideal for those who participate in contact sports.

Cataract Eye Surgery in Middle Park

Cataract development is a common part of ageing, so it causes visual impairment in many older Australians. A cataract is the clouding of the natural crystalline lens of the eye. Younger adults may develop cataracts due to other risk factors.

Some symptoms of a cataract:

  • Blurred vision
  • Difficulties reading
  • Glare symptoms at night causing problems while driving 
  • Difficulties seeing under low contrast/dim lighting conditions 

The symptoms are often insidious due to their gradual onset.

If you are diagnosed with cataracts, cataract surgery in Middle Park is the only treatment option. The 20 minutes surgical procedure involves replacing the cloudy lens with a new lens implant, restoring vision and often eliminating the need for wearing spectacles. Different types of lens implants are available, and your surgeon determines the best option for you, considering your lifestyle and vision needs.
