Outcomes vary by procedure, prescription, age and ocular health, and individual results may differ. Figures are self-reported from our clinical records and reflect follow-up up to 1 month. 6/6 is equivalent to 20/20; 6/5 and 6/4 indicate sharper-than-standard vision. Not everyone is a suitable candidate; suitability is determined by a pre-operative scan and consultation.

I traveled to India from U.S specifically for refractive surgery at Visual Aids Centre, and the experience completely exceeded my expectations. I originally went in dead-set on getting WaveLight Plus (custom LASIK) based on my own research. However, after detailed scans (cornea thickness of 574, myopia around -2.9, and minor astigmatism), the doctor took the time to explain why SMILE Pro was actually the safer option for me. Because I already experience mild dry eyes, he advised against a flap-based procedure, noting that SMILE Pro would deliver the same perfect results without risking permanent dry eye or flap complications. I highly appreciated his honesty and patient-first approach rather than just performing the surgery I initially asked for. The SMILE Pro procedure itself was completely painless, fascinating, and finished in under 20 minutes. What truly set this clinic apart, however, was their outstanding hospitality. As a traveling patient, having a dedicated staff member on call for me to reach out to in case of any emergencies during my first few days of recovery provided incredible peace of mind. The recovery followed exactly what they promised. After some initial fogginess on day one, I went back to my hotel, followed my strict drop schedule, and rested. By my final check-up before flying home, I was already reading the 1.2 and half of the 1.5 lines on their acuity chart (roughly 20/13.5 vision). My eyes are still finishing their final 35% of internal healing on a tapered steroid drop schedule, but I am already seeing significantly better than I ever did with glasses. Highly recommend this center and their team if you are considering flapless laser eye correction. Shout out to the doctor who performed my surgery; you were the best!’

First of all, thank you to Dr.Vipin and his wonderful team of professionals. As first time visitors to India, we could not have received a better welcome than in the hands of the Visual Aids family. The calm demeanour and the gentleness with which they take care of patients is noteworthy. We felt very much at home and my condition didn’t seem so worrying at all. I will definitely refer to Visual Aids Centre if someone asks me where the best eye treatment in India is, without hesitation.

We Are Here For You

We fully understand that opting for Laser vision correction is a life changing decision and it is quintessential for you to know about all the options you have and what you should expect in terms of outcomes. Please note that everyone is NOT a suitable candidate for these procedures and we need to pick and choose the right candidate on the basis of a scan to mitigate all potential risks and post-op complications. 15-20% of patients are politely refused by us due to either an underlying eye condition or unsuitable eye parameters.

Since we are the only dedicated laser vision correction eye centre of India, we offer all forms of laser vision correction procedures which may or may not be available elsewhere. As a gesture of goodwill, we offer all our patients a free of cost suitability scan and consultation to check for their eligibility for these procedures.
