Corneal Refractive Surgery (LASIK/TransPRK)
Corneal laser correction can be considered when hyperopic refractive error affects learning or work, the refractive power is relatively stable, and the corneal thickness and shape meet safety limits. The decision considers hyperopia and astigmatism power, corneal thickness and topography, tear film/

How Corneal Refractive Surgery (LASIK/TransPRK) is performed
This procedure is used to correct hyperopia, provided the corneal shape and thickness are assessed as acceptable, and a plan is formulated based on individual aberrations if necessary. It is usually performed under a microscope: LASIK typically involves creating a corneal flap and then reshaping the cornea with an excimer laser; TransPRK involves directly ablating the cornea after removing the surface epithelium. After the procedure, a protective contact lens or dressing is applied. Postoperative monitoring focuses on corneal epithelium, tear film, and refractive stability, with the goal of reducing the burden of distant imaging. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details depend on specialist assessment and hospital protocols.

Recovery process
Step 1
Recovery and stay
Combining preoperative examination, treatment, and postoperative follow-up, it is recommended to stay for a total of about 7–14 days; subject to the actual schedule of the hospital.
