Introduction
Lasik surgery is the best known and most commonly performed laser refractive surgery to correct vision problems. During Lasik surgery, a special type of cutting laser is used to change the shape of the cornea. The cornea is the dome-shaped clear tissue at the front of the eye.
Experienced Doctors
Currently, nearly a million people undergo such surgeries annually in China, allowing doctors to accumulate substantial clinical experience and continuously improve surgical outcomes. The
workforce in this field has also been expanding, with academic prowess approaching international standards. The promotion and application of new technologies, increased academic research, and the establishment of relevant guidelines in recent years have ushered China’s corneal refractive surgery into a new phase of diversity, intelligence, and standardization. Emphasis on the safety and effectiveness of surgeries, along with attention to surgical details and personalized surgical options, have further enhanced postoperative visual quality and ensured greater safety for patients.
Advanced Technologies
The development of laser eye surgery technology in China has advanced rapidly, with continuous innovation leading to the emergence of techniques
such as Femtosecond LASIK (FS-LASIK), which heralded a new era of bladeless laser eye surgeries. This innovation was followed by Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE), also known as full femtosecond laser surgery, which further enhanced the long-term safety and stability of the procedure. TransPRK has upgraded the traditional PRK technique, simultaneously improving both the safety and comfort of the surgery. These advancements have established a trio of mainstream surgical techniques in China: full femtosecond, half femtosecond, and all-laser surgeries.
