Are you tired of glasses, contact lenses or limitations to enjoy your day to day life?

Seeing clearly. Live with freedom.

At Clínica de Oftalmología Sandiego, we transform your vision with the most advanced technology in the world, available for the first time in Medellín.

What is refractive surgery?

It is a safe, fast and highly accurate procedure that allows correcting problems such as:

  • Myopia (poor distance vision)

  • Hyperopia (farsightedness (farsightedness)

  • Astigmatism (distorted vision)

  • Presbyopia (age-related eyestrain).

Our medical team will evaluate your case to offer you a personalized solution. If you are between 18 and 40 years old, you may be a candidate for this procedure.

More than a surgery, it is an experience of visual freedom.

With the incorporation of the AMARIS 1050RS and FEMTO Z8systems , unique in Medellín, we achieved procedures:

Group-1

Faster: the laser acts in milliseconds.

Group 41

Smoother: no scalpel or traditional cuts.

Group 40

More precise: eye-tracking technology and customized correction.

Group 42

Faster recovery: many patients notice visual improvement from day one.

*The assessment will determine if you are a candidate.

How does it work?

Refractive surgery precisely reshapes the cornea to correct the visual defect. It is ambulatory, does not require hospitalization and is performed with anesthesia drops for greater comfort.

Prior to the procedure, we perform advanced studies such as corneal topography, aberrometry and pupillary behavior analysis, which guarantees total customization.
