Lasik Complications

I created this account to share my story with Lasik. I hope my experience informs others of the truth behind the Lasik industry—its deceptive marketing practices, medical negligence culture and hidden complication rates.

I got Wavefront Optimized Lasik in 2023 with the ex500 laser with an Ivy League faculty surgeon in the USA. My myopia was between -5.00 and -6.00 in both eyes beforehand. My astigmatism was minor and uncorrected beforehand, between -.25 and -.50. I actually didn’t even know I had astigmatism before getting Lasik. Since that is a normal amount for most people, it is not noticeable or corrected. My prescription had been stable for over 3 years before proceeding with Lasik.

I have many complications after Lasik and it has been traumatic both physically and mentally. It is singlehandedly the most devastating thing to ever happen to me.

The surgeon should be discussing the risks with you in relation to your specific screening and eye health history during the initial consultation, but the problem is that many do not, rather they just send you a consent form after approving you as a candidate, without explaining why thoroughly. It is solely up to you to educate and inform yourself of the risks beforehand, but you are not an expert in the field so may not know what to look for in your own research.

Below are the things I wish I had known before going through with the procedure.

1) The risk of ectasia in relation to your individual screening results (corneal thickness, age, prescription, etc.). How corneal thickness impacts possibility of retreatment down the line if needed, how further treatment would greatly increase the risk of ectasia by further thinning the cornea. The risk is also very dependent on your current prescription and current corneal thickness. Higher prescriptions require more tissue removal.

2) Dry eye risk in relation to your screening. Explanation of how Lasik severs nerves which causes dry eye, risk of corneal neuralgia if nerves do not heal adequately. Explanation of how nerves never return to preoperative levels.

3) Loss of best achieved/corrected visual acuity and loss of contrast particularly at night due to pupil dilation.

4) Risk of starbursts/halos at night in relation to the patient’s pupil size vs. treatment zone.

5) Risk of under and overcorrection, and irregular astigmatism.

6) Explanation of what the Lasik flap is, scarring risk and permanent loss of corneal strength. Comparison of risks to other procedures: PRK and Smile.

7) Risk of floaters in relation to myopia, lattice degeneration, and risk of retinal detachment or early posterior vitreous detachment due to trauma caused by suction used during procedure.

8) Risk of rainbow glare due to laser pattern.

9) Explanation of how Lasik increases higher order aberrations which are uncorrectable through regular glasses/soft contacts and lead to visual side effects such as irregular starbursts, etc. There is no guaranteed fix--one can try topography guided retreatment, but it may not work. Scleral lenses can potentially correct but not cure.

10) Explanation of how Lasik makes cataract surgery harder to get if needed down the line. Patients getting Lasik should hold onto all previous eye records and topography scan for future cataract surgery. 11) Explanation of how Lasik leads to falsely low IOP measurements which may increase risk of undiagnosed glaucoma

Of these possible short-term and long-term risks, I currently have the following.

Rainbow glare, a rare side effect caused by the laser pattern. Usually transient over 2 years but not for all. Retreatment can fix it but cannot do due to post-Lasik dry eye syndrome and suspected corneal neuralgia.

Massive, irregular starbursts and halos at night, making night vision significantly poorer than before. I was told after the procedure during a second opinion consultation that I have larger than average dilated pupils, causing light to enter the untreated area at night which causes these visual disturbances. Only temporary pupil constriction drops can treat it, or risk topography-guided retreatment to widen the treatment zone, which may not work either. I'm not sure why I was approved for Lasik given my pupil size, but they told me nothing.

Diagnosed under correction, diagnosed worsened astigmatism after the procedure by .50 diopters in left eye

Diagnosed severe flap scarring

Diagnosed Higher order aberrations (HOAs). Spherical and coma in particular as shown by aberrometry. In only one eye I see diagonal streaks of lights on cars even during the day time, and ghosting at night making it hard to read subtitles, digital clocks, any text on dark screens (can no longer use my phone in dark mode, for example). I also see starbursts and halos at all times of day but they are massive at night. Again, HOAs cannot be easily corrected. Topography guided retreatment may or may not fix it, could make it worse, and scleral lenses may or may not help.

Floaters: I thought I had retinal detachment given all the floaters gradually appearing 1-3 months after Lasik, so I had an emergency appointment. The ophthalmologists cannot explain definitively why Lasik causes more floaters. I have been told that Lasik may just make them clearer. Another has said that the suction during the procedure stirs them up, and may damage the retina. Another has said that Lasik isn’t “supposed” to cause floaters the way cataract surgery does. But no one could provide a concrete answer. However, studies show that Lasik can lead to early Posterior Vitreous Detachment and and Retinal Detachment is a known risk of Lasik, so damage to the retina caused by the suction makes the most sense. In the most recent laser information, all of these are now listed as side effect so I was lied to.

Post-Lasik dry eye and corneal neuralgia. My nerves may or may not regrow adequately over the course of 18 months. I am currently being treated with serum tears which cost around $300 (not covered by insurance) for a 3-month supply. Serum tears are made from your own blood. Another treatment option is IPL which can be around $450 a session (also not covered by insurance). Previously tried prescription Xiidra eyedrops which is around $60 a month with insurance. Before Lasik, I rarely used eye drops. I now use them daily alongside frequent painkillers, nerve medication (Gabapentin), warm compresses and icepacks. I was told I likely had Dry Eye Syndrome before Lasik by an outside eye doctor, but wasn’t aware. I had thought I was becoming intolerant of contact lenses due to allergies. The ophthalmologist should have seen my dry eye during the Lasik screening, but if they did, they didn’t say anything and still approved me as a candidate. Many doctors will also say that Lasik “only causes dry eyes for the first few months,” but this is not true for many people. Some develop long-term or permanent dry eye syndrome and corneal neuralgia due to poor nerve regeneration. My life is very different than it was 8 months ago due to the daily discomfort and pain caused by dry eyes. This is the most devastating impact of Lasik so far. I would strongly advise against getting Lasik if you already have dry eye symptoms.

All this to say, I also knew around 10 people who got Lasik, PRK or Smile before I went through with it, and none had serious complications. Only one regretted the procedure due to regressing with his astigmatism a few years later. Another got Lasik in 2000 for -4.00 myopia and is still 20/20 today without side effects.

But given my side effects, I am shocked to be the “1 in 11.” I have wondered if the statistics are really accurate that most fare well. Even if I am the unlucky one, the 1 in 11, I would still argue that this probability is still way too high for such devastating risks.

When I did the procedure, I was mostly basing my faith on the people around me who had gotten it, rather than digging deeper into the research, data and stories of those with complications.

A report from the FDA in 2022 highlighted some statistics around Lasik side effects/complications and they are actually quite high despite the overall short-term satisfaction rate: https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/lasik/lasik-quality-life-collaboration-project#:~:text=Questionnaire%20with%20Filenames-,Study%20Results,halos)

The study also admits it doesn’t have much data on long-term side effects, long-term risks and satisfaction.

In general, the marketing around Lasik is that it has the highest satisfaction rate in the world, and is a quick and casual miracle. Given that Lasik is an elective, expensive, privately paid procedure, I believe that this is why many clinics don’t adequately discuss these risks or review the patient’s screening with them in detail.

I am now in a Lasik support group with a lot of people who have both similar and different issues from the procedure.

The consequences of Lasik are honestly the hardest thing I have ever gone through, so I want to make sure the next person considering Lasik is more well-informed than I was, and knows their risks in relation to their individual screening and health history. If I could go back in time, I would’ve stuck with glasses and contacts.

All in all, the effects of Lasik on my physical and mental wellbeing have been truthfully devastating. My outcome and experience thus far is something for me to adapt to, cope with, accept and move forward from.

Thank you for reading.

Smile LASIK in Delhi | Dr.Rajiv Bajaj Compares LASIK & Smile

Choose Smile LASIK in Delhi | Dr. Rajiv Bajaj’s LASIK vs. Smile Guide

Unsure between SMILE and LASIK? Dr. Rajiv Bajaj explains Smile LASIK In Delhi and helps you choose the best vision correction method for your needs.

Smile LASIK in Delhi

LASIK VS SMILE: Which One Is Best For You?

Technological advancements are occurring in every sector including the medical sector. One of the examples of advanced technology is the SMILE procedure used for treating nearsightedness and astigmatism. This is the third-generation technology after PRK and LASIK to correct the refractive error. It has several important and patient-friendly advantagesover other procedures. If you require more information, consult with the surgeon performing SMILE eye surgery in Delhi.

SMILE

SMILE is also known as Small Incision Lenticule Extraction. It is an advanced minimally invasive eye surgery. The procedure uses computer-guided laser light to reshape the cornea. It is a single-step process. In this procedure, the laser forms a small incision into the cornea and removes corneal tissue. The outcome of the SMILE procedure is excellent and has minimum complications.

During the SMILE procedure, the surgeon uses the femtosecond LASER. While the technology was approved in the United States in 2016, the procedure was in practice before that in various parts of the world. More than 1 million people all over the world have undergone their advanced third-generation procedure for correcting nearsightedness. You should choose the best surgeon for SMILE Lasik in Delhi.

Advantages Of SMILE

Following are some of the advantages of the SMILE procedure: Less invasive: It is a single-step process. It is less invasive as compared to LASIK and PRK. While the LASIK requires the formation of a 20 mm flap, this procedure forms a 3 mm incision that too a keyhole incision.

Reduced time: The time for performing the corneal reshaping is less in SMILE as compared to LASIK. While the excimer laser is used for reshaping cornea for approximately 40 seconds in LASIK surgery, the corneal reshaping time with SMILE is just 25 seconds with the femtosecond laser.

Fewer complications: Because of its less invasive nature, the complications are less as compared to LASIK and PRK. SMILE offers more corneal stability. As there is no flap formed, there are no flap associated complications such as incomplete corneal healing or corneal detachment. It also reduces the risk of damage to nerves. The technology does not cause dry eyes as there is no flap formation.

Less discomfort: Because of the reduced time of laser on the corneal tissue, the patient has less discomfort as compared to LASIK.

Odorless: The LASIK procedure creates an odor when the excimer laser hits the corneal tissue. However, such odor is not experienced in SMILE.

Conclusion:

When it comes to choosing between Smile and LASIK, both are highly effective vision correction procedures. However, Smile LASIK in Delhi, under the expert guidance of Dr. Rajiv Bajaj, offers a minimally invasive option with quicker recovery times and fewer side effects. With his extensive experience in both techniques, Dr. Bajaj helps patients make the best decision tailored to their unique needs, ensuring clear and lasting vision. Whether you opt for Smile or traditional LASIK, Dr. Bajaj’s expertise guarantees optimal results in your journey to better vision.

SILK Eye Surgery: A Revolutionary Approach in Vision Correction

SILK (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) eye surgery represents a significant advancement in the field of refractive surgery, offering a flapless, minimally invasive alternative to traditional LASIK and PRK procedures. Developed by Johnson & Johnson Vision, this innovative technique has gained traction for its safety, effectiveness, and rapid recovery times.

What is SILK Eye Surgery?

SILK is a type of refractive laser surgery that corrects myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism by reshaping the cornea. Unlike LASIK, which involves creating a corneal flap, SILK uses a femtosecond laser to create a small lenticule (a thin, disc-shaped piece of tissue) within the cornea. This lenticule is then removed through a tiny incision, altering the cornea's shape to improve vision. This flapless approach reduces the risk of complications and promotes faster healing

Benefits of SILK Eye Surgery

1. Rapid Recovery: Patients can typically resume normal activities within 24 hours, a significant advantage for those with busy lifestyles or active professions.

2. Reduced Dry Eye Symptoms: By minimizing manipulation of the corneal surface, SILK causes less nerve damage, leading to fewer and less severe dry eye symptoms compared to LASIK.

3. Safety and Stability: The absence of a corneal flap eliminates the risk of flap-related complications. This makes SILK particularly suitable for individuals involved in contact sports or professions where eye injuries are a concern.

4. Superior Vision Quality: SILK often results in exceptionally sharp vision, with many patients achieving 6/5 vision, which is better than the standard 20/20 vision.

5. Less Discomfort: The procedure is generally pain-free, with minimal postoperative discomfort. Most patients report only a slight pressure sensation during the surgery.

Comparisons with Other Procedures

SILK vs. LASIK:

-Procedure: LASIK involves creating a corneal flap, while SILK does not, reducing the risk of flap complications.

-Recovery: SILK offers faster recovery times, with many patients returning to their routines within a day.

- Dry Eyes: SILK causes less dry eye syndrome compared to LASIK due to less disruption of corneal nerves【8†source】【9†source】.

SILK vs. Contoura Vision:

- Customization: Contoura Vision excels in correcting corneal irregularities and higher-order aberrations, making it suitable for patients with specific corneal issues.

- Recovery: Contoura Vision requires a longer recovery period compared to SILK.

- Procedure: Contoura Vision involves creating a flap, similar to LASIK, while SILK is flapless.

SILK vs. SMILE:

- Incision Size: Both SILK and SMILE are flapless procedures, but SILK involves a smaller incision, potentially offering even faster recovery and fewer complications.

- Technology: Both utilize advanced femtosecond laser technology, though the specifics of the equipment and technique can vary【8†source】.

Eligibility and Considerations

To be eligible for SILK eye surgery, candidates should be over 18 years of age with a stable eye prescription for at least a year. The procedure is not recommended for individuals with certain eye conditions, such as keratoconus or significant retinal issues, and those with autoimmune diseases. Pregnant or lactating women are also advised against undergoing the procedure.

Before the surgery, candidates undergo a thorough eye examination to assess corneal health and determine the best course of action. Postoperative care involves the use of prescribed eye drops and avoiding strenuous activities for a short period.

Cost and Investment

The cost of SILK eye surgery can be higher than traditional LASIK or PRK, typically around INR 1,20,000. However, this investment is often justified by the long-term benefits, including the potential elimination of ongoing costs for glasses, contact lenses, and related eye care products.

Conclusion

SILK eye surgery is a groundbreaking option in the field of vision correction, offering a safer, faster, and more comfortable alternative to traditional methods. Its advanced technology and precision promise enhanced visual outcomes and a swift return to daily activities, making it an attractive choice for many seeking to improve their vision. As with any medical procedure, consulting with a qualified ophthalmologist to discuss individual needs and suitability is crucial.

No-Cut VS. Lasik Eye Surgery for Vision Correction Toronto: Open Your Gateway to a Clear Vision!

"Make way for healthier eyesight and happier living with Vision Correction Toronto."

Wearing eyeglasses might be lowering your self-esteem and confidence. Don't let your weak eyesight prevent you from witnessing the beauty of life. As technology marks a shift, new-age procedures are replacing the traditional ones. Getting a conventional Lasik eye surgery can be a scary nightmare. Who said correcting your vision has to be painful and stressful? Relax as the no-cut eye surgery improves your vision without pain or discomfort. In this blog, you can learn about the No-Cut VS. Lasik Eye Surgery and choose an ideal procedure for better vision. Say goodbye to wearing those dusty eyeglasses as you step into a brighter future with innovations in eye surgery!

Firstly, let's help you to know if you are the right fit to get the eye surgery for vision correction:

Are You the Right Fit for No-Cut and Lasik Eye Surgeries for Vision Correction?

Before you decide to choose between No-Cut VS. Lasik Eye Surgery, you must satisfy the following criteria:

You need to be at least 18 years old.

If you are expecting a child or nursing, do not undergo the surgery.

The typical pupil size is approximately 6 millimeters (mm) during darkness.

Your vision has remained relatively consistent over the last year.

Improving your eyesight to 20/40 or better is achievable.

Myopic individuals are prescribed negative lens strength measurements ranging from -1.00 to -12.00 diopters.

Not all individuals are qualified for both types of laser eye surgeries. Below are some scenarios that could disqualify you from either option:

If you are facing allergies, it can hinder the healing process of your eyelids and eyes.

If you have a severe eye problem like glaucoma or diabetes, you should be mindful.

If your corneas are thin, LASIK is typically not a viable choice.

Having dilated pupils increases your chances of experiencing vision problems and disqualifies you from getting LASIK surgery.

Having undergone LASIK or PRK previously can increase the potential risks associated with undergoing another surgery.

No-Cut VS. Lasik Eye Surgery for Vision Correction Toronto: Make the Right Move for Your Eye Health!

Are you considering getting vision correction in Toronto but want to know how to start? Let's explore the comparison between No-Cut and Lasik eye surgery to assist you in making a well-informed choice for your eye health and improved vision!

Procedure

No-Cut: No-Cut eye surgery involves using advanced laser technology to reshape the cornea without creating a flap. This minimally invasive procedure eliminates the need for incisions, leading to a quicker recovery.

Lasik: Lasik surgery involves creating a thin flap on the cornea, which is lifted to reshape the underlying tissue. While effective, this procedure carries a slightly higher risk of complications during the healing process.

Safety

No-Cut: With its precise laser technology, no-cut surgery offers a safer alternative to traditional Lasik. The absence of a corneal flap reduces the risk of post-operative complications, making it a preferred choice for many patients.

Lasik: While Lasik has been a trusted vision correction method for years, creating a flap can pose risks like infection or displacement. It's essential to weigh these factors when considering this procedure.

Recovery Time

No-Cut: Due to its minimally invasive nature, No-Cut surgery typically results in a quicker recovery than Lasik. Patients can expect to resume their daily activities sooner with minimal discomfort.

Lasik: The healing process for Lasik surgery may take slightly longer due to the corneal flap creation. Patients may experience temporary discomfort and blurred vision during the initial recovery period.

After considering the No-Cut VS. Lasik Eye Surgery, opting for No-Cut surgery can be a safer and more advanced choice for vision correction in Toronto.

Discover Clear Vision with The Goldberg Centre's Vision Correction Toronto!

Refractive Surgery or Lasik Treatment In Mumbai

What is LASIK

Refractive Surgery or Lasik Treatment

LASIK or ‘Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis’ is one of the most trusted laser eye surgeries for the treatment lasikasaof Myopia (near-sightedness), Hyperopia (far-sightedness), and Astigmatism (blurred vision). This laser vision correction technique is performed on the cornea so that light entering the eye can be focused on the retina for clearer vision. LASIK will completely eliminate your dependence on spectacles or contact lenses in a short 15 minute surgery.

What Is Custom Lasik?

Custom LASIK is a procedure that involves the use of a wavefront analyzer which helps the surgeon to customize the LASIK procedure to every individual eye. Customized procedure enables a person to see clearer and shaper than before and thus improves the quality of vision.

Custom LASIK uses an equipment called the wavefront analyzer (aberrometer) to accurately measure the way light travels through the eye.The resulting map of the eye is then programmed into the laser, which then treats the eye, based on the personalized 3Dmap. Custom LASIK helps to treat “higher order” aberrations,which are tiny imperfections in the optical system of the eye. They have a significant impact on the quality of vision especially at night . In fact, higher order aberrations are not treatable with contact lenses, glasses or conventional LASIK.

Is Custom Lasik Procedure Same As Conventional Lasik ?

The procedure for both custom LASIK and Conventional is the same but the pre assessment tests differ greatly. The wavefront analyer used with custom LASIK brings a whole new level of knowledge and accuracy for the surgeon to perform this advanced procedure. This treatment has a significant impact on quality of vision and eliminates the problem of glare and halos at night. Topography, Aberrometry and Pachymetry are pre-operative tests required.

Topography

Aberrometry

Opti Lasik

Opti Lasik combines today’s advanced surgical technologies into a procedure optimized for individual vision needs with minimum tissue ablation.

Many measurements are taken to determine the unique shape of the eye

The Laser reshapes the cornea using energy pulses based on the individual unique correction profile

This allows incoming light to be precisely focused on the retina.

Advantages

Smooth treatmentsHigh level of comfortExcellent accuracyProven safety

EPI-LASIK

Epi-LASIK is a newer laser eye surgery procedure that was developed to solve some of the potential problems with LASIK and LASEK. It’s somewhat of a cross between the two, but differs in a few key areas. With advent of Intralase Bladfree technique Epi-lasik is now obsolete.

Presbyopic Lasik

Presbyopia-test1PreLEX treatment (Presbyopic Refractive Lens Exchange) is a lens replacement procedure wherein the natural lens is replaced with a multi-focal intra-ocular lens implant. This is done to improve vision for those generally above the age of 40, as it is after this age that one’s eye sight begins to naturally become weak—causing blurred near vision while reading or working at the computer, or blurred far vision when looking at something from a distance.

ICL (implantable collamer lenses)

ICL are an alternative to LASIK and PRK eye surgery for severe myopia (nearsightedness)or high hypermetropia ( far sightedness) or in cases with very thin cornea where LASIK is contraindicated, and in some cases produce better and more predictable vision outcomes than laser refractive surgery. ICLs are clear implantable lenses that are surgically placed either between the the iris and natural lens without removing the natural lens. ICLs enable light to focus properly on the retina for clearer vision without corrective eyewear. Surgery is minimally invasive day care procedure which is very safe.

ICL Vs Contact lenses

Implantable lenses function like contact lenses to correct the eye power. The difference is that ICLs work from within your eye instead of sitting on the surface of your eye. ICLs offer a permanent correction , where as contact lenses are temporary and need daily wear and removal. Unlike contact lenses, you can’t feel a phakic intraocular lens in your eye (much like you don’t feel a dental filling for a cavity) and, apart from regular eye exams, ICLs typically do not require any maintenance.

ICLs vs. LASIK Eye Surgery

LASIK, which uses a computer-controlled laser to reshape the cornea, is the most popular refractive surgery to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, in part due to continual technological advancements such as wavefront custom LASIK and femtosecond laser technology.

Not everyone is a candidate for LASIK, though. Contraindications to LASIK surgery include: a very high degree of myopia having a cornea that is too thin or irregular in shape; eye conditions such as keratoconus; and chronic dry eyes. In these cases surgery gives excellent results.
