What are the alternatives to vision correction?
Glasses and contact lenses are the most common alternatives to vision correction surgery. But wearing glasses comes with many inconveniences.
You have to put them on and take them off all the time, and they don’t always fit well into your active lifestyle. Contact lenses can also be uncomfortable and difficult to keep clean. Not only this but if you wear them incorrectly, they can cause damage to your eyes.
Vision correction surgery may be just what you’re looking for. We offer treatments such as SMILE, LASIK and lens replacement surgery. These are safe and convenient alternatives to traditional forms of vision correction and they can be performed in as little as 10 minutes!1 Probst, The Optimization of LASIK, International Ophthalmology Clinics 48(1):p 9-16, Winter 2008.
You will be able to see clearly and immediately after the surgery and will be able to resume your normal activities within 24 hours. 2https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.2147/OPTH.S299752

Hi, I’m Dr Aanchal Gupta, a specialist laser eye and cataract surgeon in Adelaide.
For more than 15 years, I have had the privilege of helping thousands of patients achieve clearer vision and greater freedom from glasses and contact lenses, having performed more than 15,000 eye procedures.
Vision correction requires precision, experience and sound clinical judgement. Achieving consistently excellent outcomes depends not only on advanced technology, but also on the expertise of the surgeon using it.
I understand that choosing eye surgery is an important decision. Every person’s eyes—and visual needs—are different, so treatment should be carefully tailored to your eye health, lifestyle and goals.
Your complimentary initial assessment is an opportunity to explore your suitability, learn about the options available and have your questions answered without obligation.
I look forward to welcoming you to IVISION LASER in Adelaide and helping you discover what may be possible for your vision.
