Refractive Services
What is Refractive Surgery?
Refractive surgery corrects vision errors such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. It is a life-changing solution for those seeking visual freedom.

Refractive Surgery at SGVEH
At Shri Ganesh Vinayak Eye Hospital, we offer a full spectrum of refractive surgeries, including laser-based procedures (LASIK, PRK, SMILE) and lens-based procedures (ICL/IPCL). Our advanced technology and experienced surgeons ensure safe, precise, and effective outcomes tailored to each patient’s needs.
Procedures Offered
- PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy): Ideal for patients with thin corneas or those unsuitable for LASIK.
- SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction): A minimally invasive laser procedure with rapid recovery and reduced complications.
- ICL/IPCL (Implantable Collamer/Phakic Intraocular Lens): A lens implant for patients with high refractive errors or those ineligible for laser surgery.
Procedures Offered
- Pre-Surgery Assessment: We perform detailed tests, including corneal topography, Pentacam, and wavefront analysis, to determine eligibility and customize the procedure.
- Surgery: The procedure typically takes 10-15 minutes per eye, is performed under topical anesthesia, and is painless. Laser-based procedures reshape the cornea, while ICL/IPCL involves implanting a lens inside the eye.
- Post-Surgery Care: Patients receive comprehensive recovery guidelines and follow-ups to ensure optimal vision outcomes. Most resume normal activities within 1-2 days.
