YAG LASER produces a concentrated beam of light that can focus on the iris or any thick membrane behind the intraocular lens.
This Laser beam can create a smooth, fine opening of desired size in these structures without affecting other sensitive parts of the eye.
YAG LASER treatment is done as an outpatient procedure.Special eye drops are put in the eyes to numb them.A small contact lens is placed on the eye to direct the laser light on to the desired site.The treatment takes only few minutes and the patient can go back home immediately.
LASER Sugery is safe and painless with few complications.
