What is Laser Eye Surgery?
Laser eye surgery is a procedure designed to correct common refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. Utilizing state-of-the-art laser technology, this surgery reshapes the cornea to improve the way light enters the eye, enhancing your overall vision and reducing reliance on glasses or contact lenses. At Emirates Hospitals Group’s Ophthalmology Department we have best eye Surgeons in Dubai.
