If you wear glasses or contact lenses, chances are you’ve thought about a permanent solution to correct your vision. LASIK treatment is a widely preferred and trusted procedure that offers freedom from visual aids. At Dr. Agarwal’s Eye Hospital, LASIK treatment is performed using advanced technology, ensuring optimal results with safety and precision.
What is LASIK Treatment?
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a type of refractive surgery designed to correct common vision problems such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. The procedure involves reshaping the cornea so that light entering the eye is properly focused onto the retina, resulting in clearer vision.
This minimally invasive surgery typically takes around 15 minutes for both eyes, with most patients experiencing improved vision within 24 to 48 hours.

Who is Eligible for LASIK?
LASIK is ideal for adults above the age of 18 who have had a stable eyeglass prescription for at least a year. However, not everyone is a suitable candidate. The ophthalmologists at Dr. Agarwal conduct a detailed eye examination to check for:
- Corneal thickness and shape
- Eye health and general health condition
- Stability of the eye prescription
- Presence of any eye diseases like keratoconus or dry eyes
