The main problem of astigmatism is that the asymmetric curvature of the cornea or natural lense results in uneven focusing.
People with uncorrected astigmatism can see objects as blurred, distorted or dark.
Astigmatism, which can also be associated with different forms of refractive errors, occurs very often.

Procedure description
For this treatment the clinic offers a fully individualized procedure – FEMTO LASIK PREMIUM procedure – two lasers that will correct even the smallest optical defects of your eyes. Immediately after the surgery, the patient experiences a significant improvement in vision, with 100% acuity being reported by most patients on the second day after surgery.
The Femto LASIK PREMIUM procedure, as the most advanced and gentle method of vision correction, will help you enjoy clearer and more acute vision than you have ever had before with glasses or contact lenses. This precise laser method was approved by NASA and the US Army for vision correction in astronauts and soldiers.
The eye surgery is performed under local anaesthesia using drops applied to the eye. It is completely painless and does not last more than 10–15 minutes. The procedure uses two lasers: the femtosecond laser to make a protective corneal lamella, without using sharp instruments, and the excimer laser to correct refractive errors.
First, an aberrometer is used to measure the smallest defects of the eye (higher-order aberrations) which – like fingerprints – are unique to every human being, and these are then transferred to the excimer laser. The femtosecond laser will make a protective corneal lamella very carefully and with excellent accuracy. Thanks to data transfer from the aberrometer, it is possible to approach the patient’s eye individually and remove even the slightest deviations and optical imperfections.
After procedure condition, ordinary daily routine
Thanks to the very gentle method applied, there is no need for long convalescence, there is barely any hindrance to your usual day. After returning home the clinic recommends the check-up of the local eye specialist in a domestic country.
Immediately after the surgery, the patient experiences a significant improvement in vision, with 100% acuity being reported by most patients on the second day after surgery.
Thanks to the high quality of work, to the professionalism of the team and to the leading edge technologies and equipment, the clinic is able to offer a lifetime warranty for laser surgery care.
