  • (1888PressRelease) March 05, 2013 - Bangkok, Thailand - From prescribing glasses and contact lenses to complex and delicate eye surgery using technologically advanced equipment, and all in a relaxed, efficient and professional environment.

    A testament to Bangkok Hospital LASIK Center's world-class physicians, equipment, procedures and safety standards is the fact the center is operated by Bangkok Hospital which is accredited by Joint Commission International (JCI), the gold standard for top-tier healthcare providers.

    Bangkok Hospital is a world class hospital in Thailand and leading private hospital in Bangkok. Bangkok Hospital LASIK Center's ophthalmologists are available for consultation and treatment, and can advise on the various state-of-the-art procedures which are available for surgical vision correction to find that best suited to a patient's particular needs.

    Contrary to popular belief, not everyone is a good candidate for laser surgery. At Bangkok Hospital LASIK Center, an ophthalmologist will perform a pre-test to ensure a patient meets the basic criteria. To be a candidate for a custom LASIK procedure, a person must meet the following requirements:

    • Be over 18 years of age and in good general health
    • Have had stable vision for at least a year
    • Be bothered by wearing glasses or contact lenses at work and in daily activities. Not be pregnant or nursing. Not be suffering from other corneal or ocular diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, severe dry eyes, or an illness that could affect wound healing such as lupus.
    • Have a thorough understanding of the procedure, and realistic expectations.
    Refractive surgery is a life-changing decision that must always be made after being informed of the risks as well as the benefits. Overall, LASIK is a safe and effective vision correction procedure when performed by an experienced ophthalmologist, and serious complications which result in the need for surgical intervention or cause significant vision loss are very rare. Minor problems include:
    • Infection
    • Under- or over-correction
    • Reduced low-light vision, sensitivity to light, and visual distortion such as glare, haloes or starbursts around light sources which may be bothersome or make driving at night difficult
    • Initial fluctuations of vision
    • Dry eye syndrome
    Among the available LASIK procedures at Bangkok Hospital LASIK Center are:
