What is Bladefree Lasik and how it is important ??
SBK Lasik / Femtolasik aims to preserve the integrity of cornea by creating a precise thin flap offering best safety and faster visual recovery. SBK Lasik is also called Thin Flap Lasik, as conventional LASIK create a flap thickness of 130 to 150 microns, while thin flap SBK Lasik offers thinner flaps of precise thickness of 90 to 110.
SBK Lasik Surgery
Nowadays, a new kind of advanced surgery emerges which incorporates the best of the best attributes of flap creation & Spectacle number correction. SBK Lasik aims to preserve the integrity of cornea by creating a precise thin flap of 90-110 micron thickness . With older technologies the flap thickness was 130 to 180 microns leading to more flap related complications .SBK Technology offers better safety & faster visual recovery to patients who are undergoing Lasik Surgery. SBK Lasik is also called Thin Flap Lasik or Blade Free lasik
Over a period of 20 years, lots of advancements have taken place in Lasik laser Technology, from standard Lasik to Customized Lasik to Advanced Aspheric Lasik. In the recent years, better and cost effective technology has been launched for making finest quality flaps that is SBK Lasik or Blade Free Lasik which surely offers better outcome eliminating any complications .Thin flap Lasik offers better corneal strength after the Lasik procedure and leaving a stromal bed which is absolutely smooth for the laser correction
Based on affordability factor those who cannot afford to pay for a thin flap Lasik, conventional flap Lasik is recommended as treatment is same and only difference is thickness of flap. However, in some cases where corneal thickness is not adequate eg those with thin cornea or those with high number ,then only thin flap lasik is recommended. SBK Lasik causes less dryness in the eyes and does not give rise to any kind of complications that are created by conventional LASIK.
The cost of SBK Lasik or Bladefree Lasik (combination of Advanced Aspheric Lasik & Thin Flap Lasik) is lowest in jalandhar at Kataria Eye & ENT Hospital Jalandhar starting from Rs 40000 for both eyes
