Surgery for defective vision / laser eye surgery
If, for personal reasons, you are not able to cope optimally with glasses or contact lenses, eye surgery (Excimer LASER Operation) can significantly improve your vision.
Eyeglasses and contact lenses temporarily compensate for impaired vision (defective vision). They change the refractive power of the eye by adding a correction value. In contrast, a surgery that changes the refractive power of the eye (refractive surgery) results in a permanent correction of defective vision.
