Questions patients ask before visiting.

Trans PRK cost at Kabra Eye Hospital depends on your eye measurements, treatment plan, and technology used. A refractive screening is needed before an exact estimate. Call +91 9529 888 000 or book online for a consultation.

Yes, LASIK and Trans PRK are accepted for many government job medical clearances including police, army, and railway exams. Kabra Eye Hospital provides medical certificates and post-op documentation needed for medical boards.

Most patients see improved vision within a few days, but full surface healing can take 1 to 2 weeks. Vision may continue improving for several weeks. Follow-up visits at Kabra Eye Hospital help monitor recovery.

Yes, ICL/IPCL is an implantable lens option for high power numbers where LASIK or Trans PRK may not be ideal. It does not remove corneal tissue and can correct very high numbers.

The ideal age is usually 18 to 40 years with stable spectacle number for at least 1 year. Kabra Eye Hospital checks corneal thickness, eye health, and number stability before recommending any procedure.

Trans PRK generally has a lower dry-eye risk compared to flap LASIK because no corneal flap is created. However, temporary dryness can still occur during surface healing. Lubricating drops and follow-up care help manage this.

Cataract surgery and LASIK are different procedures. During cataract surgery, the cloudy natural lens is replaced with an artificial IOL which corrects vision. Some premium IOLs can reduce dependence on glasses without needing LASIK.

Yes, Kabra Eye Hospital in Sodala, Jaipur is currently the only center in Rajasthan with the Schwind Amaris 1050RS excimer laser for true single-step Trans PRK.

Eye surgery is not like buying vegetables. The cheapest clinics often use older machines, skip proper screening, rush procedures, and employ less experienced surgeons. A single mistake can cause permanent vision loss, corneal damage, or chronic dry eye. At Kabra Eye Hospital, every patient gets detailed corneal mapping, retina evaluation, and doctor-led counselling before any recommendation. Your vision is for life — do not gamble with it.

Yes. Poor screening, outdated lasers, inexperienced surgeons, and lack of proper follow-up are the leading causes of LASIK complications. Risks include corneal ectasia (progressive thinning), severe dry eye, halos, glare, and in rare cases permanent vision loss. Kabra Eye Hospital uses Schwind Amaris — a machine other doctors specifically refer patients for — because precision and safety cannot be compromised.

Failed or poorly performed LASIK can result in permanent side effects: blurred vision, double vision, light sensitivity, chronic eye pain, and inability to drive at night. Correcting a botched surgery is extremely difficult and expensive. That is why Kabra Eye Hospital invests in pre-operative screening, Schwind Amaris technology, and surgeon experience — prevention is the only real cure.

Schwind Amaris 1050RS is the fastest and most precise excimer laser in the world. Its 1050 Hz laser frequency means treatments are completed in seconds, reducing dehydration and error. The 7-dimensional eye tracker follows every micro-movement. No other machine in Jaipur offers this combination of speed, precision, and safety. That is why doctors across Rajasthan refer patients to Kabra Eye Hospital.

Myth 1: All LASIK is the same. Truth: Machine quality, surgeon skill, and screening depth vary massively. Myth 2: Cheaper is better value. Truth: Complications from cut-rate clinics cost far more to fix. Myth 3: Every eye is suitable. Truth: 20-30% of patients are rejected after proper screening. Myth 4: Recovery is instant. Truth: Healing varies by procedure and individual biology.

Never hide your medical history, current medications, or previous eye problems. Never rush into surgery without a second opinion. Never choose a clinic that does not perform corneal topography, pachymetry, and retina screening. Never ignore post-operative instructions. And never think saving a few thousand rupees is worth risking your eyesight.

Trans PRK is a no-touch, no-flap surface laser procedure. Because no corneal flap is created, there is zero risk of flap-related complications — no flap dislocation, no flap wrinkles, no flap inflammation. Patients with thin corneas, active lifestyles, or high physical demands often choose Trans PRK for this safety profile. At Kabra Eye Hospital, Schwind Amaris performs the entire procedure in one laser sequence.

Absolutely not. Cheap clinics cut costs by using outdated excimer lasers, skipping diagnostic tests, reducing consultation time, and sometimes using non-specialist surgeons. A failed surgery can leave you with worse vision than glasses, chronic pain, and no way to reverse the damage. Your eyes are the only pair you have. Invest in the right hospital, the right screening, and the right technology.

No. Most clinics use older-generation excimer lasers that lack precise eye tracking and slower treatment speeds. Only Kabra Eye Hospital in Jaipur has the Schwind Amaris 1050RS — the only machine in Rajasthan capable of true single-step Trans PRK. Technology directly affects outcomes, safety margins, and recovery quality.

1. What excimer laser do you use and when was it last serviced? 2. Who will perform my surgery and what is their experience? 3. What screening tests are mandatory before surgery? 4. What is your complication rate? 5. Do you offer flapless options like Trans PRK? 6. What happens if something goes wrong? A reputable hospital will answer all of these transparently.
