Free LASIK Eligibility Screening (45 minutes)
We perform detailed corneal mapping using Pentacam HR and OPD Scan III, along with pachymetry, dry eye assessment, and pupil measurement to determine if LASIK is right for your eyes.
Kenia Eye Hospital is one of Mumbai's most trusted destinations for LASIK eye surgery, offering bladeless and flapless laser vision correction on the FEMTO Z8 NEO, Western India's first robotic femtosecond laser from Ziemer, Switzerland. Backed by 26 years of clinical legacy since 1998 and led by Dr. Vaishal Kenia, our refractive surgery team helps patients across Mumbai achieve clearer, sharper, glasses-free vision in just 24 to 48 hours.
At Kenia Eye Hospital, LASIK is more than a routine refractive surgery. It is a fully personalised process built around your eye anatomy, prescription stability, lifestyle, and long-term vision goals. Every LASIK procedure begins with a 45-minute eligibility screening using Pentacam HR, OPD Scan III, Anterion, and Corvis ST, ensuring your eyes are right for laser correction before any treatment is recommended.
Our refractive surgery centre offers seven different LASIK options, ranging from standard bladeless Femto LASIK to the next-generation CLEAR (Flapless LASIK) procedure, where we are the first centre in Western India. Each LASIK is performed by Dr. Vaishal Kenia, an ESCRS-featured refractive surgeon with over 28 years of experience in cataract, cornea, and refractive surgery.
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In-Situ Keratomileusis) is a laser eye surgery that permanently corrects refractive errors by reshaping the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye. By precisely altering the curvature of the cornea, LASIK helps light focus correctly on the retina, allowing patients to see clearly without glasses or contact lenses.
The procedure is bladeless, painless, and takes 10 to 15 minutes per eye. A femtosecond laser creates a thin corneal flap (or no flap in CLEAR), an excimer laser reshapes the underlying tissue, and the flap is repositioned to heal naturally. Most patients return to normal life within 24 to 48 hours.
LASIK is best suited for patients with mild to moderate refractive errors and healthy corneas. Patients with very high power, thin corneas, or chronic dry eyes may instead be recommended ICL (Implantable Contact Lenses) as a safer alternative.

LASIK at Kenia Eye Hospital can correct a wide range of refractive errors and vision problems:
If you have any of the above conditions and are tired of relying on glasses or contact lenses, LASIK may be the right choice for you.
We offer seven types of LASIK to suit different prescriptions, corneal profiles, and lifestyles:
The corneal flap is created using a femtosecond laser instead of a blade, ensuring greater accuracy, faster healing, and reduced risk. Recommended for most LASIK candidates.
A next-generation, flap-free laser vision correction performed entirely through a tiny incision using the femtosecond laser. CLEAR preserves corneal strength, minimises dry eye risk, and enables quicker recovery. Ideal for sports professionals, defence personnel, and active lifestyles.
Corrects higher-order aberrations and reduces glare, halos, and night vision issues. Best for patients who want sharper, more natural vision quality, especially in low light.
Maps and treats subtle corneal irregularities for patients with irregular astigmatism or unevenly shaped corneas. Delivers smoother, more uniform vision outcomes.
A fully personalised treatment plan built using wavefront and topography data, designed to match your unique eye shape. Offers the highest precision and long-term outcome stability.
One eye is corrected for distance, the other for near vision. Ideal for patients over 40 who want to reduce dependence on reading glasses caused by presbyopia.
Standard blade-based LASIK. A cost-effective option for patients with stable, moderate refractive errors and healthy corneas.
Your LASIK journey at Kenia is structured into six clear steps, from screening to long-term care:
We perform detailed corneal mapping using Pentacam HR and OPD Scan III, along with pachymetry, dry eye assessment, and pupil measurement to determine if LASIK is right for your eyes.
Based on your screening results, Dr. Kenia recommends the most suitable LASIK type for your eyes and provides a transparent cost breakdown.
Stop wearing contact lenses 5 to 7 days before surgery. No fasting is required. Numbing eye drops are applied on the day of the procedure.
You lie comfortably under the FEMTO Z8 NEO laser. The entire procedure is painless. You may feel a slight pressure sensation for about 10 seconds during flap creation.
Rest at the hospital for 30 to 60 minutes after surgery. You walk out the same day with mild, short-lived discomfort. No overnight stay is needed.
Your first check-up is within 24 hours, followed by scheduled follow-ups for one full year. Prescribed eye drops are used for the first 7 days.
Book a personalised consultation with Dr. Vaishal Kenia and find the LASIK type best suited to your eyes and lifestyle.
LASIK is one of the most life-changing eye surgeries available today. At Kenia Eye Hospital, patients consistently experience measurable improvements in vision, lifestyle, and confidence within days of the procedure.
Most patients achieve 20/20 vision or better within 24 to 48 hours of LASIK. Daily dependence on glasses or contact lenses ends almost overnight.
The entire LASIK procedure takes 10 to 15 minutes per eye, with no needles, no stitches, and no hospital admission. You walk in and walk out the same day.
LASIK at Kenia is performed using the FEMTO Z8 NEO robotic femtosecond laser, Western India's first, ensuring greater accuracy, gentler tissue interaction, and faster healing than blade-based techniques.
LASIK results are designed to last a lifetime. Once your cornea is reshaped, the correction is permanent, with stable vision for most patients well into their 40s and beyond.
Patients typically return to work, screens, and routine activities within 24 to 48 hours. There are no bandages, no patches, and no extended bed rest.
LASIK opens up a glasses-free lifestyle. Patients can swim, play contact sports, travel, and pursue active careers (including defence and aviation roles, especially with CLEAR Flapless LASIK) without visual limits.
Kenia Eye Hospital has been performing refractive surgeries since 1998 and has helped thousands of patients across Mumbai achieve glasses-free vision.
We are the first refractive surgery centre in Western India to install the FEMTO Z8 NEO robotic femtosecond laser, the only platform that performs five different eye surgeries on one machine.
Kenia is the first centre in Western India to introduce CLEAR, a next-generation flapless LASIK procedure ideal for active lifestyles and defence personnel.
LASIK at Kenia is performed by Dr. Vaishal Kenia, an ESCRS-featured refractive surgeon with over 28 years of experience and 4 ESCRS Video Symposium selections (2018, 2019, 2020, 2022).
Every LASIK begins with comprehensive diagnostics on Pentacam HR, OPD Scan III, Anterion, Corvis ST, OPTOS, and IOL Master 700.
Kenia Eye Hospital is a NABH-accredited multi-superspeciality eye hospital in Mumbai, ISO 9001:2015 and FEQH certified, and CGHS-empanelled.
