LIFE BEYOND GLASSES STARTS HERE!
For years, you've relied on glasses or contact lenses to see clearly. Refractive surgery offers a long-term solution by correcting the shape of your cornea, helping you achieve clear vision with reduced dependence on visual aids.
What Is Refractive Surgery?
Refractive surgery is a group of procedures designed to correct common vision problems by changing the way light focuses inside the eye. The goal is to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Normally, light entering the eye should focus directly on the retina. When the shape of the cornea or the length of the eye prevents this from happening, vision becomes blurred. This is known as a refractive error.
Laser vision correction reshapes the cornea or, in some cases, implants a corrective lens to allow light to focus more accurately, resulting in clearer vision.
It can help correct:
- Near-sightedness (Myopia)
- Long-sightedness (Hyperopia)
- Astigmatism
- Certain age-related refractive conditions
At Amanat Eye Hospital, we believe vision correction is never one-size-fits-all. Every eye has its own unique anatomy, which is why every treatment begins with an advanced diagnostic assessment. Using world-class technology and personalised surgical planning, our refractive surgeons recommend the safest and most effective procedure for your eyes.

Using world-class technology and personalised planning, our surgeons recommend the safest, most effective procedure for your eyes, whether MS-39 Guided Femto LASIK, SMILE, Femto LASIK, PRK, Trans-PRK, ICL, or Clear Lens Exchange.
Why A Comprehensive Assessment Matters?
One of the most important parts of refractive surgery happens before the procedure.
A patient's glasses prescription alone is not enough to determine whether laser vision correction is appropriate. Conditions such as irregular corneas, early corneal disease, severe dry eye, or retinal problems may affect treatment recommendations.
At Amanat Eye Hospital, your refractive assessment includes:
- Detailed refraction and vision testing
- Corneal tomography and topography
- Corneal thickness measurement
- Tear film evaluation
- Pupil size assessment
- Dilated retinal examination
- General eye health assessment
This thorough evaluation allows our surgeons to recommend the treatment that is most suitable for your eyes while prioritising long-term visual health.

Surgery Procedures
MS-39 GUIDED FEMTO LASIK
Pakistan's Most Advanced Personalised Laser Vision Correction
Every eye is different, and so is every cornea. Standard vision tests don’t always show the full picture needed for laser vision correction.At Amanat Eye Hospital, MS-39 Guided Femto LASIK combines advanced corneal analysis with femtosecond laser technology to create a treatment plan tailored to your eyes. The MS-39 uses high-resolution anterior segment OCT, Placido-disc corneal topography, epithelial thickness mapping, and 3D corneal tomography to assess your cornea in detail. Your treatment is then performed using the SCHWIND AMARIS® 1050RS Limited Edition Excimer Laser, designed for precise eye tracking and customised laser treatment. If your eyes need a different approach, our refractive team can recommend the procedure that best suits your eye health and visual goals.
MS-39 Guided Femto LASIK
Pakistan's Most Advanced Personalised Laser Vision Correction
Every eye has a unique corneal shape and structure, and standard vision measurements alone may not capture all the details needed to plan laser vision correction.
What to expect
during your journey
Before Surgery
Your consultation includes a detailed assessment, diagnostic imaging, discussion of suitable treatment options, and an opportunity to ask questions about the procedure.
During Surgery
Most laser procedures are performed using anaesthetic eye drops and take only a few minutes per eye. Patients usually return home on the same day.
After Surgery
Recovery varies depending on the procedure performed. Follow-up appointments allow your surgeon to monitor healing and provide personalised guidance throughout recovery.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is refractive surgery painful?
No. Refractive surgery is generally not painful. Numbing eye drops are used before the procedure to keep you comfortable, so most patients feel little to no pain during the treatment. You may experience mild discomfort for a short time after surgery.
Am I a suitable candidate for refractive surgery?
You may be a suitable candidate if you are over 18, have a stable glasses prescription, and have healthy eyes. However, a comprehensive eye examination and diagnostic tests are required to confirm whether refractive surgery is right for you.
What should I do before my refractive surgery?
Your surgeon will provide personalised instructions based on your treatment. If you wear contact lenses, you may need to stop wearing them for a specific period before your eye examination or surgery, as contact lenses can temporarily change the shape of your cornea.
How long does refractive surgery take?
The laser treatment itself usually takes only a few minutes per eye. However, your overall visit may take longer due to pre-operative preparation, final checks, and post-operative instructions.
How long does recovery take?
Recovery depends on the procedure performed. Many patients notice improved vision within a few days, while complete healing may take longer depending on the treatment.
