What Is SILK Surgery? A Simple Explanation
SILK is a flapless laser vision correction technique. Instead of lifting a flap, the laser gently reshapes the cornea through a tiny opening, preserving the structural strength of your eye. Benefits include:
- A flapless approach ideal for active lifestyles and sports
- Minimal disturbance to the corneal surface and nerves
- Faster visual comfort and a quicker return to routine
- Advanced laser precision for accurate correction
Each treatment is selected with a focus on long-term ocular health, not convenience.
