Well-known for being the first generation of laser eye procedures

LASEK & PRK surgery is chosen very occasionally and in very special scenarios to correct conditions such as short-sightedness (Myopia), long-sightedness (Hyperopia) and astigmatism.
Our PTK laser eye surgery is an alternative vision correction treatment for people who want independence from glasses but also suffer from an injury on their cornea. If you have any corneal injuries, or corneal eye diseases you might be suitable for our PTK laser surgery to correct your vision.
As laser eye surgery must be tailored to each patient’s prescription with complete accuracy, our laser specialists use precise algorithms to program the laser to help you see clearly without glasses or contacts.

Choosing the best laser
treatment for you

When you choose My-iClinic, our team and expert ophthalmologists will be committed to working with you to find the best procedure for your needs – transforming your eyesight for the better.

LASEK & PRK Laser
Eye Surgery at My-iClinic

LASEK (Laser Assisted Epithelial Keratomileusis) and PRK (Photorefractive keratectomy) are almost identical vision correction procedures.
LASEK & PRK eye surgery only differ in how our laser specialists remove different layers of the cornea. In LASEK eye surgery, the top layer of cells is simply moved to one side and replaced after surgery, whereas the PRK surgery removes them completely.
Both LASEK and PRK surgery procedures use a laser to reshape the tissue on the surface of the eye to achieve clear vision.

Consultation

Our laser treatments are the most technically advanced options for people who want the latest and greatest vision correction option to treat any blurriness, astigmatism and short-sightedness.
When you visit us for a private consultation, our laser specialists will conduct a number of eye tests in order to examine all the factors involved in correcting your eyesight. Prior to your appointment, we will advise that you do not wear soft contact lenses for two weeks.
If you wear hard contact lenses, we advise you not to wear these for a minimum of two weeks (including a week for every decade you have worn hard contact lenses). This is to ensure the cornea of your eye is ready for measurements to be taken accurately.
Your laser specialist will then be able to offer the best possible course of treatment to correct your vision. Your first consultation will be an all-inclusive cost of £200, with no obligation to have treatment if you wish to have some time to consider your options.

Treatment

On the day of your LASEK or PRK surgery, we advise that you do not wear any makeup or perfume and be accompanied by a relative or friend who can assist you home afterwards.
When you arrive at your appointment, you will be shown into our private laser suite, where our friendly nurses will talk you through the procedure.
They will place a small drop of anaesthetic on your eye and provide you with support for your eyelids, so there is no need to worry about blinking.
After you are comfortable and relaxed, your laser specialist will give you easy, simple instructions throughout the process to make sure your laser treatment is smooth and accurate.

Aftercare

There is nothing more important than our patients feeling comfortable after their laser treatment - which is why your dedicated laser specialist will check your eyes 1 day after your surgery.
Once they check your vision, they will advise you to rest for 1 week before resuming any exercise, driving or strenuous activities./
Our team will always be at the end of a phone call throughout your recovery at home to answer any more questions you may have about your life after laser treatment.
In your aftercare appointment, your laser specialist will check the improvement of your vision and answer any other questions you may have before you can finally experience your new life without contact lenses and glasses!/

What is PTK and how is it different to other types of laser eye surgeries?

PTK (Photo-Therapeutic Keratectomy) is a type of laser eye surgery used to treat various corneal surface problems, such as corneal dystrophies, corneal scars, recurrent corneal erosions, and superficial corneal irregularities. Unlike procedures like LASIK, LASEK, or PRK, PTK is not primarily intended to correct refractive errors like myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism, although it may have some effect on vision in certain cases.

If you do not require PTK medically, it is most likely that our other laser eye treatments are suitable for you such as: our ReLEX SMILE, Presbyond and LASIK treatment.

Why consider My-iClinic

The surgeon was excellent, the staff very pleasant and knowledgeable. The atmosphere in the clinic was serene and unhurried.As I said to Bola my surgeon she really is a miracle worker, making "the blind to see". I had bilateral cataract surgery, and afterwards I could see without aid which I had not been able to do for 65 years.

I have had cataract removed from both of my eyes at My-iClinic, with last surgery done yesterday 06-02-2023. On both occasions, the medical side of the surgery was carried out with level of professionalism in a state of the art environment. The clinic cleaniless is outstanding.

Brilliant Treatment resulted in Brilliant Vision After noticing that my distance vision when driving was becoming uncomfortable and driving at night was becoming more and more difficult and new prescription glasses didn’t make much difference I decided to have cataract surgery. A friend recommended I have a consultation at the I-Clinic. Their professional examination was really Impressive and I had my totally painless operation to remove the cataracts (on both eyes) completed within the next four weeks.

DRDoug Ryan

I was recommended to Mr Bulger by a friend and was very pleased with the entire process for removing cataracts and improving my vision remarkably. It really is a miracle. All of the staff were kind and attentive and with Mr Bulger I felt that I was in very safe hands. Follow up activity was with Ms Odufuwa who was most helpful and attentive

I cannot praise My-Iclinic enough from my initial consultation to pre op and my surgery. The staff are reassuring and extremely professional in every aspect of the process. Mrs Bola Oduwufa is a wonderful surgeon and a magician in my eyes !!!. My double cataract extraction and lens replacement has improved my eyesight 1000%.I didn’t realise how flat and dull the colours and perspective of seeing life through my eyes had become due to the cataracts.

The care taken by all the clinic staff to ensure that I was comfortable, kept informed of what was being done to my eye and made to feel relaxed during the pre op tests was of an extremely high standard The surgeon was thorough, in the initial meeting, in explaining the problems and procedure that she would use to remove my cataracts.

CMC Morgan

Fantastic results. I was so impressed by all the staff and the extensive pre and post op test and scans which has resulted in 20:20 vision. My surgeon made the double cataract operation as easy a process as possible with re-assurance at all steps. Highly, highly recommended

My-iClinic was recommended by my optometrist. Both eyes were done quickly, painlessly and by a friendly team and one of two expert eye surgeons. Mr Bolger inspires confidence. I think I've had mine done early before the cataracts developed too much, which I recommend. The clarity is wonderful. Don't wait for your vision to get worse.

I am a absolutely terrified of anybody going near my eyes, it took a lot of courage to go ahead with treatment. During treatment the nurses and everybody concerned made great efforts to give me confidence. The staff were very friendly and thorough in their approach with attention to detail at every stage. I could have had the treatment in Cyprus at a much lower cost - but finally decided that My-iClinic from reports I had read and comments made to me was the best option. All the time remember you only have one set of eyes - and I have always felt it is your most important sense

How vision correction saves our planet

Hard to swallow facts about wearing glasses and contact lenses.
  • Almost 800 million plastic contact lenses are used by 4 million people each year.
  • 100,000 tons of plastic are wasted from glasses.
SMILE, LASIK, PresbyondYour key to a sustainable, plastic-free life!
Saving more than just expenses, time and compromise, but saving the planet!
Clearer vision makes a clearer climate

How restoring your natural sight with vision correction treatment is helping the climate change crisis

Did you know blurry vision is on the rise?We call this ‘Myopia’ but you might already know Myopia as ‘Nearsightedness’.

By 2050 the World Health Organization predicts 4.9 million people will suffer from Myopia which not only affects people's natural sight and quality of life, but also contributes to the masses of plastic waste in our climate.

We understand how vision correction treatment is a healthier and natural way to not only restore your clear vision, but as an opportunity to see our climate become clean and bright for future generations to come!

Saving the planet one eye at a time!

When undergoing laser eye surgery, you may not realise it but you are already making a positive difference to the environment.

For every 10 years of contact lens wearing the amount of plastic that ends up in the ocean is roughly the same as your own body weight.

Our gift to you...Here at My-iClinic we give all of our laser patients a real forest tree!

Over your tree’s long life, you can visit it, introduce it to your family and track its growth and value! Over the lifetime of the tree, it will more than offset the carbon you've used with your contacts/glasses. When the tree is harvested, its value will be yours and new trees are planted to replace it.

LASEK, PRK & PTK Frequently asked questions

Have a question? We are here to help.

What is LASEK, PRK & PTK laser eye surgery?

Patients who have double vision express their symptoms as:

LASEK eye surgery (Laser Assisted Epithelial Keratomileusis) is a traditional laser refractive treatment which corrects short-sightedness (myopia) , long sightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism. A Common alternative to LASIK surgery and can be used to treat all the common refractive errors, including: PRK eye surgery (Photorefractive keratectomy) is a laser treatment which requires removing parts of the cornea in order to reshape the eye with our laser machine. PRK is a traditional procedure correcting short-sightedness, far-sightedness and astigmatism. PTK eye surgery (Photo-Therapeutic Keratectomy) is a surgical treatment best suited to people who already have complicated eye conditions which affect their cornea, such as corneal dystrophy. Our PTK specialist uses this treatment for complex eyes and is medically required in order to achieve clearer vision. If you do not require PTK medically, it is most likely that our other laser eye treatments are suitable for our other vision correction treatments, ReLEx SMILE, Presbyond or LASIK treatment.

Am I suitable for LASEK or PRK eye surgery?

If however, you have a prescription between -.50D to -10D and up to 5.0D you will be best suited to our most modern laser treatment, ReLEx Smile.

What is the difference between LASEK, PRK & PTK?

LASEK and PRK are essentially the same laser treatments but they require different methods of laser to reach the part of the eye that needs correcting. In LASEK surgery, the top layer of your eye cells are simply moved to one side and replaced after surgery, whereas the PRK surgery removes them completely and this is done using a dilute alcohol solution. Both LASEK and PRK procedures use a laser to reshape the tissue on the surface of the eye to achieve clearer vision without the need for wearing glasses or contact lenses. However, our PTK treatment is only used for complex eye’s which medically require this method of surgery to achieve clearer vision. Somebody who requires PTK may need this treatment to improve irregular astigmatism, severe keratoconus, corneal scarring, recurrent erosion syndrome and post-corneal transplants.

Is LASEK, PRK & PTK successful?

Dating back to the 1980s, thousands of patients have been successfully treated using LASEK & PRK prior to the invention of LASIK. Due to recent medical advancements, ReLEX SMILE is now usually the preferred option for people wanting clear and natural vision without glasses or contacts. LASEK, PRK & PTK surgeries provide an excellent option for those with specific optical conditions including thin corneas. Both procedures are also popular with those who play high-impact sports.

Why would I need LASEK, PRK or PTK laser treatment?

Usually, when either of these procedures are recommended, it means that there is something more unusual in your condition that wouldn’t be effectively corrected by LASIK. To find out if LASEK & PRK surgery is right for you, we will book you a FREE suitability check in which we will advise you on which laser procedure is best for you.

I have a thin cornea, am I suitable for LASEK, PRK or PTK?

People who have thin corneas are usually suitable for LASEK, PRK or PTK to correct their short sightedness and astigmatism. Our specialist will be able to offer you a free suitability check for all of our laser eye surgery procedures to check which treatment will best suit your eyes for a life without glasses and/or contact lenses.

How much does LASEK, PRK or PTK cost?

Our cost for our Laser eye surgery procedures (LASEK & PRK) is £2,400 per eye with FREE aftercare appointments to check your vision with your dedicated laser specialist after treatment. We offer 24 months interest-free finance because we understand correcting your vision is a life-long investment.

What is the recovery period for LASEK, PRK or PTK laser eye surgery?

Whether you have LASEK, PRK or PTK laser eye treatment, we recommend a 1 week recovery period. After your treatment, you will be given eye drops and detailed aftercare instructions from our friendly nurse which you will need to complete at home while your eyes heal and adjust. We advise resting for this 1 week period and not to not participate in swimming, sports and any other strenuous activity until you attend your aftercare appointment with your laser specialist. Our friendly team is always here to help answer any questions you may have about your recovery after treatment. Please call us on 0208 445 8877 and our patient care coordinator will be able to help you with any questions.
