Facts about our Laser Eye Treatments in Sheffield

Patients with varying eye conditions typically experience a slow, progressive deterioration in their quality of vision. It is important to understand what the process of laser eye surgery is, to give our patients peace of mind prior to their treatment:

• Laser eye surgery is one of the most commonly performed elective treatments in the world today and there has never been a safer time to have laser eye surgery.
• Endorsed by the National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), it is now estimated that over 32 million procedures have been performed worldwide.
• Laservision correction treatment uses a cold, high-precision beam, which is precisely programmed to remove a microscopic layer of the cornea that alters its curvature, to correct vision.
• In reshaping the cornea, the focusing power of the cornea is altered, thus shifting the focus of the incoming light to the correct plane, the retina.
