Our precision laser therapies manage a wide range of conditions:

  • YAG Capsulotomy – clears cloudiness after cataract surgery
  • PRP (Panretinal Photocoagulation) – treats diabetic retinopathy
  • Retinopexy – seals retinal tears to prevent detachment

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the recovery time after LASIK or PRK?

Most LASIK patients resume normal activities within a few days. PRK recovery takes longer—typically 1–2 weeks for surface healing and several weeks for full vision stabilization.

Which age group is suitable for laser surgery?

Ideal candidates are aged 20–40 with a stable prescription. Under 20, vision may still change; over 40, age-related eye conditions may affect eligibility.

How do I manage dryness or light sensitivity post-procedure?

Use preservative-free artificial tears, sunglasses, and follow prescribed eye drop regimen. LASIK has quicker recovery, while PRK may require more post-op lubrication.

Is PRK painful?

Most patients feel mild discomfort or foreign body sensation during initial days, which is managed with medications and protective contact lenses.

How long does recovery take from PTK?

PTK typically requires several days for visual restoration; vision clarity improves gradually over a few weeks.

Is laser floater removal safe?

YAG vitreolysis is minimally invasive and safe when performed by a skilled retina specialist. Risks are low but include rare retina tears or pressure changes. 

How many sessions are needed for floater removal?

Depending on floater density, 1–3 sessions spaced weeks apart may be needed. Improvement often begins immediately but can continue over time.

Do I need a referral to book an appointment?

No referral is necessary. You can book directly with Ishraq Eye Center by phone or online.

What should I bring for my first appointment?

Please bring your ID, any previous medical or eye records, and a list of medications you are currently taking.
