What is WaveLight Plus Innoveyes LASIK?

WaveLight Plus Innoveyes is the most advanced AI-guided flap-based excimer laser platform available in India.

What is SMILE Pro and how is it different from LASIK?

SMILE Pro (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is a flapless, keyhole laser procedure. A small 2 mm arc incision is made and a tiny disc of corneal tissue (lenticule) is extracted — no flap at all. Benefits over traditional LASIK: significantly lower dry eye risk, faster return to sports (1–2 weeks vs 4 weeks), suitable for thin corneas. Priced at ₹65,000/eye.

What is SiLK laser eye surgery?

SiLK (Sub-2mm Incision Lenticule Keratectomy) is the next generation of lenticule surgery — a sub-2 mm incision creates an ultra-smooth stromal bed with minimal peripheral cuts. Ideal for high prescriptions, thin corneas, and patients needing the most biomechanically stable outcome. Priced at ₹75,000/eye at Centre For Lasik.

How is Contoura Vision different from LASIK?

Contoura Vision is a US-FDA approved topography-guided LASIK that maps 22,000 unique elevation points on your cornea, creating a treatment profile as individual as your fingerprint. Over 30% of patients achieve vision better than 6/6 (super-normal vision). Priced at ₹25,500/eye.

How exactly does LASIK work?

LASIK uses a precise laser to reshape the cornea, correcting the refractive error. In flap-based procedures (Standard, Contoura, WaveLight Plus Innoveyes), a thin flap is created, the excimer laser reshapes underlying tissue, and the flap is repositioned. In flapless procedures (SMILE Pro, SiLK), a small incision replaces the flap entirely. The procedure takes 10–15 minutes per eye.

How safe is LASIK surgery?

LASIK has a 97% patient satisfaction rate and is among the most studied elective procedures in the world. With over 40 million procedures performed globally and US-FDA approved platforms including WaveLight Plus Innoveyes, SMILE Pro, and SiLK, LASIK is exceptionally safe. Serious complications occur in less than 0.1% of cases.

Which is better — LASIK or SMILE Pro in 2026?

Both are excellent. Choose flap-based LASIK (WaveLight Plus Innoveyes, Contoura) if you want the most clinically proven platform and cost is a priority. Choose SMILE Pro or SiLK if you are an athlete, have borderline dry eye, have a thinner cornea, or want the lowest incision possible. Our surgeons will recommend the best option after your free diagnostic evaluation.

What is the recovery time after LASIK?

Flap-based LASIK (WaveLight Plus Innoveyes, Contoura): vision improves within 4–6 hours; office work next day; sports in 2–4 weeks. SMILE Pro / SiLK: vision improves within 24–48 hours; sports in 1–2 weeks. Full stabilisation for all procedures: 3–6 months.

How long does LASIK last? Is it permanent?

LASIK permanently reshapes your cornea, so the correction is lifelong. Natural age-related changes (presbyopia) may require reading glasses after 40, but the original distance correction remains stable in the vast majority of patients.
