LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a safe, proven, and permanent solution to correct refractive errors like myopia (short-sightedness), hyperopia (long-sightedness), and astigmatism.
Tired of wearing glasses or contact lenses every day? LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a safe, proven, and permanent solution to correct refractive errors like myopia (short-sightedness), hyperopia (long-sightedness), and astigmatism.
At Drishtikunj Netralaya, Danapur, Patna, our refractive surgery expert Dr. Nimmi Rani – Gold Medalist MS & Fellow of Aravind Eye Hospital uses state-of-the-art laser technology to provide customised LASIK with exceptional precision and outcomes.
LASIK reshapes the cornea (the transparent front surface of the eye) using a precise excimer laser. A thin flap is created in the corneal tissue, the underlying stroma is reshaped, and the flap is repositioned. This allows light to focus accurately on the retina, resulting in clear vision without spectacles or contact
lenses.
Procedure time: 15 minutes for both eyes
Anaesthesia: Topical eye drops only – no injections
Recovery: Vision improvement within 24 hours; return to work in 2–3 days
Results: Permanent – stable for life in eligible patients

Treatable refractive error range (myopia -1.00 to -8.00D, hyperopia, astigmatism)
No significant eye conditions (dry eye, keratoconus, corneal disease)

Yes. LASIK is one of the most extensively studied elective surgical procedures in the world, with over 50 million procedures performed globally with an excellent safety profile. At Drishtikunj Netralaya, Patna, LASIK is performed by Dr. Nimmi Rani – a Gold Medalist MS Ophthalmologist and Fellow of Aravind Eye Hospital – using the latest laser technology.
The minimum age for LASIK eye surgery in Patna is 18 years. Additionally, your spectacle prescription must have been stable (unchanged) for at least 12 months before surgery. A pre-LASIK screening at Drishtikunj Netralaya, Danapur, will confirm your suitability.
For most patients within the treatable range (typically myopia up to -8.00D to -10.00D, hyperopia, and astigmatism), LASIK can reduce dependence on glasses to zero or near-zero. Outcomes depend on your prescription, corneal thickness, and age. A consultation at Drishtikunj Netralaya, Patna will provide a realistic assessment.
LASIK results are permanent for the correction of the treated refractive error. Most patients enjoy excellent vision for decades. However, age-related changes (presbyopia after age 40, cataracts in later life) can affect vision independently of the LASIK correction.
Most patients notice dramatically improved vision within 24 hours of LASIK at Drishtikunj Netralaya, Patna. You can return to office work within 2–3 days. Activities like swimming, contact sports, and eye rubbing should be avoided for 2–4 weeks.
