Laser treatment, lens surgery… or another solution?
Many of our patients ask: which treatment is best for my situation? The answer is always personalized, as different solutions may be the safest and most effective path based on age, vision impairment, lifestyle, and health condition.
For young adults
Our laser treatments are the most popular, as they help you get rid of glasses and contact lenses quickly and painlessly.
Over 45 years old
Modern vision correction lens surgeries are adapted to your lifestyle, and in addition, they prevent further deterioration of vision and prevent cataracts from developing.
Special cases
Pediatric ophthalmology, diabetes screening, retinal treatments, and general checkups help prevent and treat vision problems.
The final decision is always made after a suitability assessment, where our experienced doctors determine exactly which treatment is the safest and most effective for you.
Life without glasses and contact lenses
Laser vision correction at Saint James Vision and Aesthetics Center
Many people choose laser eye surgery because they are tired of constantly changing glasses or the irritation caused by contact lenses. Others find glasses a nuisance during sports or on vacation. Laser treatment offers a quick, safe and painless solution that gives you new freedom in your everyday life.
Contoura Vision laser eye surgery
A globally recognized, premium laser procedure that provides unparalleled precision and rapid recovery. With Contoura Vision, we restore the freedom of sharp vision to thousands of patients every year, making it our most popular treatment.
Other laser vision correction surgeries
Our PRK and Touch Free procedures offer a safe and proven alternative if Contoura Vision is not right for you. Like our other treatments, they are modern, reliable solutions that guarantee effective results.
Vision over 45 years old
Vision correction lens surgeries
Lens surgeries are ideal for those who want to finally do away with compromises. Searching for and changing glasses is inconvenient, squinting while reading is annoying, and no one wants their vision to deteriorate further over time.
At our clinic, with a single modern procedure, you can regain the experience of sharp vision, even at all distances, thanks to our premium lenses.
- Comfortable reading and mobile use without glasses
- Confident driving, sharp vision day and night
- A lifelong solution with premium contact lenses
Premium multifocal lens
The essence of modern trifocal and multifocal lenses is that you can see clearly near, far, and intermediate distances with a single implanted artificial lens. This means that in most cases, separate reading or distance glasses are no longer needed after surgery.
Cataract surgery
Cataract removal is the most common eye procedure worldwide, which, when combined with premium intraocular lenses, not only stops vision deterioration but also ensures a higher quality of life, all safely.
A thorough and playful pediatric ophthalmological examination
The examinations are completely painless and are performed using methods adapted to the child's age. This allows for timely detection of refractive errors, strabismus, or blurred vision, preventing later problems.
Caring for the little ones
Pediatric ophthalmology
Many parents turn to us when their child squints, blinks, looks at the story up close, or cannot recognize distant objects. Others seek a specialist because of a referral from a child welfare worker, kindergarten teacher, or teacher, or simply want to be sure that everything is fine with their child's eyes. An experienced pediatric ophthalmologist awaits the little ones at our clinic with patience and empathy.
Special solutions for children
During the examination, we will identify the cause of the vision problems and, if necessary, recommend glasses or further treatment. Parents will receive detailed, easy-to-understand information about each step so they know exactly how to help their child.
Naturally younger look with eyelid reconstruction
Lifting the upper or lower eyelids can make your eyes look fresher, more open, and boost your self-confidence. During the surgery, excess skin is removed, the area around the eyes is smoothed, and the end result is discreet and long-lasting.
Comprehensive solutions
Eyelid surgery and other treatments
Eyelid surgery offers both aesthetic and functional solutions. It helps to get rid of tired eyes, sagging skin, and in many cases improves vision if the drooping eyelid is already obscuring the field of vision. The procedure is safe, offers quick healing, and restores a natural, youthful appearance.
Our other aesthetic and ophthalmological treatments
Do your eyes often sting or hurt? In addition to eyelid surgery, our dry eye treatments, plastic and aesthetic procedures, and modern diagnostic tests also help keep your eyes healthy.
