Treatment
LASIK Surgery
Bladeless LASIK using femtosecond laser technology. Corrects myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism with rapid visual recovery — most patients see clearly within 24 hours.
Overview
Understanding the Procedure
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is the world's most popular vision correction procedure. At K Vision Centre, Miss Tina Khanam performs bladeless LASIK using the latest femtosecond laser technology, offering a precision approach that reshapes the cornea to correct short-sightedness, long-sightedness, and astigmatism.
The procedure begins with the creation of a thin corneal flap using a femtosecond laser — no blades are involved at any stage. An excimer laser then precisely reshapes the underlying corneal tissue to correct your prescription. The flap is gently repositioned and heals naturally without stitches.
Most patients notice a dramatic improvement in vision within hours of the procedure, with the majority achieving driving-standard vision by the following day. The entire treatment takes just 10–15 minutes per eye, and both eyes are typically treated in the same session.
Miss Khanam's approach combines advanced wavefront-guided technology with meticulous pre-operative assessment to deliver predictable, high-quality outcomes. Every patient receives a comprehensive consultation including corneal topography, pachymetry, and tear film analysis to confirm suitability.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Suitability depends on your prescription, corneal thickness, pupil size, and overall eye health. During your consultation, Miss Khanam performs a comprehensive assessment including corneal topography and pachymetry. Generally, candidates are aged 18+, have a stable prescription, and adequate corneal thickness.
Most patients see clearly within 24 hours and can return to desk work the next day. You should avoid rubbing your eyes for two weeks and swimming for four weeks. Miss Khanam will see you at 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month post-operatively.
LASIK at K Vision Centre starts from £1,195 per eye. We offer interest-free finance options to help spread the cost. The price includes your consultation, procedure, and all follow-up appointments.
No. Anaesthetic eye drops completely numb the eye before the procedure. You may feel a mild pressure sensation for a few seconds when the laser is applied, but there is no pain. Some patients experience mild grittiness for a few hours afterwards.
LASIK results are permanent. The corneal reshaping does not reverse. However, natural age-related changes (such as presbyopia after 40) can affect near vision over time. A small percentage of patients may benefit from an enhancement procedure years later.
