iLasik Eye Laser Surgery
iLasik, laser eye surgery is one of the most advanced methods used to treat eye disorders. This technique, which has a much lower risk of complications than traditional laser methods, offers a practical and permanent solution for patients who prefer not to wear glasses or contact lenses. It is a bladeless, high-tech laser method for treating common refractive errors such as myopia, astigmatism, and hyperopia.
In iLasik treatment, the surgeon uses a laser to create a thin flap over the cornea. The laser then precisely shapes the cornea to improve vision. The procedure is personalized and offers comfort with a short recovery time.
Frequently asked questions?
What is the iLasik Eye Laser Method?
iLasik is a laser eye surgery procedure that aims to permanently correct refractive errors. This procedure eliminates the need for visual aids like glasses or contact lenses, improving patients' quality of life.
Intralase laser technology, or bladeless laser technology, is used in the procedure. Wavefront technology also provides high precision, creating a three-dimensional map of the eye and enabling personalized treatment planning. This is one of the most important factors that increases reliability.

Who is iLasik Suitable For?
Suitable candidates for iLasik surgery must have the following characteristics:
-Ages 18 and over
-There has been no change in eye number in the last 12 months.
-Not pregnant or breastfeeding
-Corneal thickness is sufficient
-Do not have diabetes or similar chronic diseases
-Patients with myopia (up to 10 degrees), astigmatism (up to 4 degrees) and hyperopia (up to 6 degrees)
-Suitable for a patient is determined by examination and treatment is planned individually.

Things to Consider Before Surgery
-A detailed examination and evaluation is performed before the surgery.
-Eye makeup should not be applied on the day of surgery.
-The use of blood thinning medication is regulated under the supervision of a doctor.
-Contact lens wearers should stop wearing lenses in the days before the surgery.
-The patient is informed about the surgical process and his/her consent is obtained.

How is iLasik Surgery Performed?
A 3D map of the eye is created with Wavefront technology.
-This data is transferred to the laser system and a personalized treatment plan is created.
-The eye is numbed with drops (topical anesthesia).
-A flap is created in the cornea with a femtosecond laser.
-Vision defects are corrected by shaping the cornea with laser.
-The flap is placed in its original location and the surgery is completed.

What is Wavefront Technology?
Wavefront technology creates a three-dimensional map of the eye's optical surfaces and measures light refraction at each point. This allows for detailed identification of refractive errors and the development of an optimal personalized treatment plan. It is a key technology that increases the success of iLasik treatment.
Surgery Duration and Recovery
iLasik surgery usually takes 5-10 minutes.
It is a painless procedure with drop anesthesia.
The recovery process is rapid, and patients can usually return to their normal lives within a few days.
