In the modern world, time is a very valuable resource, it is completely impossible for many to fall out of the dynamic rhythm of life for a long time, and it seems that laser vision correction (LKZ) surgery will remain just a dream..
But what if we say that everything can be done quickly and efficiently? So, instructions on how to do everything and not forget anything! Doctors have prepared for you a detailed algorithm of all actions and the most honest timing.
Step one. Checking if it is possible to do laser correction.
The main boundaries of the operation are as follows:.
Age. From 18 to 45 years old.
Until the age of 18, the body is still developing and the effect of the operation can be very short-lived. After 45 years, age-related changes in the body begin, the lens begins to lose transparency, even with minimal clouding of the lens, laser vision correction cannot be performed.
The state of the visual system.
Myopia - from -1 to -12 diopters.
Astigmatism - up to 7 diopters.
Farsightedness - up to +5 diopters.
The limits of application are individual, in each case, consultation with a specialist is necessary..
Contraindications.
Keratoconus.
optic nerve atrophy.
Glaucoma.
Cataract.
Retinal disinsertion.
We checked ourselves, all boundaries are respected. Great! Go ahead!
step two. Comprehensive vision diagnostics.
The final decision on whether laser correction is indicated for you can only be made by a doctor.. This requires a comprehensive diagnosis of the entire visual system..
Do not forget to remove the lenses beforehand (soft - a week before the diagnosis, hard - a month) and refrain from makeup.
Procedure time - 1.5 hours. During this time, the condition of your entire visual system will be checked for you, then the doctor will give a detailed consultation, at which he will tell you whether it is possible to get 100% vision and describe in detail how the operation is carried out.
If the doctor has recommended laser correction for you, we can safely proceed to the next step..
Step Three. Analyzes.
Before the operation, you need to take a blood test:.
For HIV.
For hepatitis B and C.
For syphilis.
For sugar.
This is necessary so that the doctor can take into account the risks of infectious complications and adjust the postoperative regimen.. Therefore, it is important to tell your doctor about all chronic diseases and medications you are taking..
Step Four. Operation.
After all the basic steps, the simplest thing remains - to come to the operation at the specified time. The operation lasts only 10-15 minutes. But your stay in the clinic will take on average about 3-4 hours. This is because the doctor must examine you before and after the operation to make sure everything went well..

After the operation, no hospitalization is required - you return home immediately after the examination.
Some people are afraid of the rehabilitation process, it seems that it will be long and painful. This is wrong.
You can return to your usual life quite quickly, for example, using a computer after laser vision correction is not prohibited two days after the operation. Read, work with papers - in 1-3 days. However, prolonged eye strain is not recommended for 7–14 days.. Sick leave is issued for this period..
You will need at least 3 days for the correction procedure itself, after 14 days you can return to active eye loads, and after a month all restrictions are removed. Agree, it's not so much to get perfect vision!
