Are there any risks or complications?

May 2, 2013

There are always small risks associated with any surgery or laser procedure. Serious complications are rare in surface ablation treatments such as TEMLA, and for the vast majority of patients who adhere to the instructions after the procedure, there are very few problems. We aim to provide you with the most suitable procedure that has the least risk of problems. Potential problems which do improve over time are: Poor vision not corrected with glasses or contact lenses, from a severe eye infection for example; variable vision, often due to dry eyes; haloes, glare, and starbursts with lights at night; difficulty with reading vision.
Everybody is different , but when we meet with you we will discuss all the issues relevant to you, so that you can make a fully informed decision about whats best for you and your eyes.
