Lasik Tunisia: what is it?

Laser vision correction (lasik Tunisia) aims to modify the shape of the cornea. It acts on the cornea by photoablation. Its main indication is refractive surgery to compensate for myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and other vision pathologies.

Tunisia is equipped with the latest ultra-sophisticated machines for laser eye treatment.

To be operable for Lasik you must:

  • Be between 18 and 45 years old
  • Have good corneal thickness, i.e. more than 500µ
  • Have myopia between -1.00 and – 8.00 diopters
  • Have a regular cornea, i.e. no keratoconus

Lasik pre-operative examination

We therefore need two pre-op examinations: pachymetry, corneal topography.

Lasik Tunisia: The intervention

Corneal tissue is removed to make the top of the cornea a few microns flatter for myopia and more rounded for hyperopia.

Lasik operating techniques

  • Lasik: The Laser is applied to the thickness of the cornea after surgical cutting of a flap of corneal tissue removed in place at the end of the intervention. The technique is painless, a little longer, five minutes longer, but visual recovery is faster and the aftermath is painless.
  • The PRK (Surface laser): or Photorefractive keratectomy.

Procedure of the lasik intervention Tunisia

The procedure is carried out on an outpatient basis, light anesthesia with eye drops is administered, as well as a sedative if the patient is distressed. The operation lasts a few minutes, the action of the laser itself takes a few seconds. It is a painless procedure. Laser eye surgery has no visible scars. Both eyes can be operated on at the same time.

There is no hospitalization, no dressing, you return to the hotel thirty minutes later. You will always remain reachable with your surgeon's mobile number.

Lasik Tunisia: Questions / answers?

All myopic, astigmatic and hyperopic people over 18 years old.

As a general rule, social embarrassment is 24 hours maximum. Driving and resuming work are possible within the same time frame.

In a few weeks, but normal professional and social activity is possible after 1 to 2 days.

No, it’s pure local anesthesia, using eye drops.

Five minutes per eye, approximately, whatever the technique.

Absolutely not, whether in surface laser (PKR) or LASIK.

For social security, the laser operation is a comfort surgery and therefore cannot give rise to work stoppage. On the other hand, it is entirely possible to take 1 to 3 days off.

3 days after the procedure.

After a week, any physical and sporting activity is authorized.

Not at all through social security, but some mutual insurance companies offer a package for excimer laser surgery.

To our knowledge this has never happened before. The Excimer Laser only works on the surface of the eye (the cornea), giving us confidence in the technique and allowing us to perform the procedure on both eyes at the same time.

For myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, the result is durable in the long term.

For presbyopia, the result is lasting for 5 to 6 years. Beyond that, further retouching may be necessary.
