Laser Eye Surgery for Astigmatism in Chennai
From ₹22,000/eye • US-FDA approved laser platforms
What astigmatism is
In astigmatism the cornea is shaped more like a rugby ball than a football, so light focuses at two different points. It shows up as a 'CYL' value and an axis on your prescription, and causes blur at all distances, eye strain and ghosting around lights.
Which procedure is best for astigmatism
The right option depends on how regular your astigmatism is:
- Regular astigmatism, normal cornea: Standard LASIK, Contoura or SMILE all work
- Irregular or asymmetric astigmatism: Contoura (topography-guided) is usually preferred, as it treats the measured corneal shape
- Thin cornea with astigmatism: Epi-Contoura (no flap)
- Very high cylinder or keratoconus: ICL or corneal cross-linking may be advised instead
Why the evaluation matters more with astigmatism
High or changing astigmatism can be an early sign of keratoconus, a condition where laser surgery can make things worse. Corneal topography and tomography at your Chennai evaluation rule this out before any treatment is planned.
