Eye surgery in France

Cataracts

Cataracts are an opacification of the lens which results in decreased visual acuity. This illness which is very common in older people and can cause blindness. When this difficulty becomes incapacitating, a surgical operation is required, which consists of replacing the lens with an implant. The center uses Femtosecond Laser (with ultra rapid pulses), the first of its kind in France. 

Ocular defects and their correction

Two people in three suffer from sight defects: myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism or presbyopia. These deficiencies generally derive from an ill-shaped cornea or eyeball which makes it impossible to build up images in the retina.

Laser eye surgery

Whereas glasses or contact lenses can correct sight defects, laser eye surgery, also called refractive surgery, is another means of providing an unequalled level of comfort: A long-lasting correction can be achieved by directly altering the corneal tissue.
Developed over thirty years ago, refractive surgery is a reliable and highly precise surgery, in particular thanks to the Femtosecond Laser.
