Tired of reaching for your glasses first thing every morning? Struggling with dry, irritated eyes from contact lenses? LASIK surgery at Complete Eye Care in Gurgaon offers a permanent, painless solution — and most patients wake up the very next day seeing clearly without any aid.
At Complete Eye Care, Gurgaon, all LASIK and vision correction procedures are performed personally by Dr. Parul Sony — MD trained at AIIMS New Delhi (India's most prestigious eye institute) and FRCS qualified from the Royal Colleges of Surgeons, UK. With over 25 years of refractive surgery experience and 29,000+ patients treated, Dr. Sony offers the full spectrum of vision correction procedures under one roof: Bladeless Femto LASIK, Contoura Vision, SMILE, ICL, and PRK. You will receive the procedure that is genuinely right for your eyes — not simply the one most widely marketed.
LASIK — which stands for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis — is a laser eye procedure that permanently reshapes the cornea (the clear outer surface of your eye) to correct the way light is focused onto the retina. The result is sharp, clear vision without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
The cornea is responsible for about 70% of your eye's focusing power. When its shape is even slightly irregular — too steep, too flat, or asymmetric — light doesn't land precisely on the retina, causing blurred vision. LASIK corrects this by removing microscopic amounts of corneal tissue with a computer-guided laser, reshaping the cornea to the exact curvature needed for your eye to focus correctly.
The procedure itself takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes for both eyes. You remain awake throughout, feel no pain (only mild pressure for a few seconds), and go home the same day. For the majority of patients, vision is dramatically clearer by the following morning.
LASIK in Gurgaon has become one of the most popular and trusted vision correction choices for professionals, students, and athletes who want to eliminate their dependence on eyewear once and for all. At Complete Eye Care, we have helped thousands of Gurgaon patients achieve that freedom — and we can help you understand whether LASIK is the right option for your eyes too.
When glasses or contact lenses become a trouble in your life, Lasik surgery offers an alternative that can give you clear vision again. The innovative technology treats the most common types of refractive errors that you may know as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. Lasik surgery offers a highly successful approach to permanently improving your vision without ever having to use glasses or contact lenses again.
Your ability to see depends on the way that your eyes bend (refract) light. A refractive error occurs when they do not bend it perfectly, preventing the eye from focusing light correctly. Nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism are common refractive errors that glasses and contact lenses can correct temporarily and surgery improves permanently.
Rays of light can bend when they pass through water or a cornea such as the clear front surface of your eye. An abnormally shaped cornea bends the light imperfectly leading to the refractive error. Anatomical features affect the ability of your eyes to refract light and focus properly.
All three of these refractive errors — myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism — can be permanently corrected through LASIK surgery. In many patients, two or even all three conditions are present simultaneously, and a single LASIK procedure can address all of them at the same time.
The key question is not whether LASIK can correct your condition, but whether your eyes are structurally suitable for the procedure. That is precisely what our detailed LASIK Screening at Complete Eye Care, Gurgaon, is designed to determine — before you commit to anything.
Myopia meansnearsightedness, that means the near objects are clear but the distant objects appear blurry. If you have myopic eyes, the long length of your eyeball from front to back or deviations in the shape of your eye structures make your vision inadequate. In some patients, heredity is a factor, and other influences on your eye structure may include your age, ethnicity, gender or even how you use your eyes. The occurrence of myopia among teenagers in India is about 13 percent, and scientists note that the use of 300 million smartphones may have an impact on the statistic.
Farsightedness or hyperopia makes distant objects easier for you to see than those that are close to you. Symptoms may not attract your attention when you are young, but they may eventually create blurry vision when you look at objects that are both near and far away. Some indications that you are farsighted include eyestrain, headaches, squinting and blurry vision when you look at something that is close to you. Hyperopia occurs when eyeballs are too short or when the lens or the cornea has an abnormal shape. It can affect children as well as adults, and it may occur as an inherited condition. The frequency of occurrence of hyperopia in India and around the world is less than that for myopia.
A common form or refractive error, astigmatism prevents the eye from focusing light in a particular axis on the retina. It occurs when light bends differently from normal as it goes through the eyeball because of the oval shape of the cornea. Children and adults may experience astigmatism, often without noticing it. Signs of the problem include squinting and eyestrain, blurry vision at any distance, headaches and difficulty in night driving. The occurrence of astigmatism is so common that you may have some form of it that has existed since birth. It tends to follow hereditary lines, and it may accompany myopia, hyperopia or both types of refractive errors.
Not every pair of eyes is the same — and not every vision correction procedure is right for every patient. That is why, at Complete Eye Care in Gurgaon, we offer the full range of modern refractive surgeries rather than promoting just one approach. During your LASIK Screening, Dr. Parul Sony will personally evaluate your corneal thickness, pupil size, power, and tear film quality to recommend the procedure that will give you the safest and best possible outcome.
Here is a straightforward guide to all available procedures so you can come to your consultation already informed:
Lasik surgery provides a path to clear vision. You can achieve freedom from glasses, contact lenses and endless prescriptions with a procedure that permanently improves your vision.Lasik is laser assisted reshaping of the cornea to correct refractive errors, and provide you freedom from spectacles and glasses. There are different kind of procedures, blade assisted and bladeless LASIK.
In Blade procedures, a special blade called microkeratome is used to make the corneal flap and then Excimer Laser is used to correct the spectacle power. Modern microkeratomes are able to create flap almost similar to the ones created by Femto Lasers.
There are 2 types of Blade Lasik Procedures
1. Standard LASIK
2. Customised LASIK
This Laser treatment pattern involves customized Lasik. The optical aberrations of the eye are picked up by an aberrometer and are reduced by the Laser along with spectacle power treatment. Aspheric treatment gives better contrast. Some centres use the normal version of the keratome which picks up a flap of 160 microns. A flap once picked up, is replaced back after laser correction of the underlying corneal tissue.
In Standard LASIK, a precision instrument called a microkeratome creates a thin hinged flap on the outer cornea. An Excimer laser then gently reshapes the tissue underneath to the correct curvature before the flap is repositioned. The entire process takes around 10 minutes per eye.
Best suited for: Patients with straightforward refractive errors and a preference for the most cost-effective laser option.
Approximate cost (both eyes): ₹20,000 – ₹40,000
This is the C-lasik as described above, but without the Aspheric component. This is good enough to correct the refractive error but does not give the advantage of improved contrast. The element of halo's and glare is more in this version while the cost is the lowest.
In Bladeless Femto LASIK, the corneal flap is created entirely by a Femtosecond laser — no blade ever contacts the eye. The laser is accurate to the level of 5 microns (for comparison, a single human hair is approximately 60 microns wide). This extraordinary precision produces a thinner, more uniform flap that heals faster and reduces the risk of flap-related complications compared to blade-assisted surgery.
A second laser — the Excimer — then reshapes the corneal bed to the precise correction your eye requires. The flap is repositioned and adheres immediately without any stitches.
Best suited for: Most patients seeking the best balance of safety, precision, and cost. This is the most widely recommended procedure at Complete Eye Care, Gurgaon.
Approximate cost (both eyes): ₹50,000 – ₹80,000
In the Blade-Less technique, there are no blades working on the eye. The whole procedure is done by the use of one or combination of two lasers; Femto Laser and Excimer Laser. The precision of Femto Laser is to the levels of 5 microns. Which means that if a human hair is 60 microns, a Femto laser can cut 6 layers in that hair, which is impossible with a blade. Therefore, Bladeless technique gives greater precision, better quality of vision and more safety.
Bladeless Lasik uses Femtosecond Laser, which is used to create an ultra thin flap in cornea, second is Excimer Laser which is used to reshape the cornea to induce correction. The flap is then positioned back which sticks to its place immediately. No blades are used at any time in the whole procedure. Bladeless Lasik has been approved by US-FDA in 2001.
At Complete eye care we offer entire spectrum of refractive surgeries including BLADELESS LASIK with best lasiksurgerons in Gurgaon/gurugram.
Contoura Vision is the most advanced form of LASIK currently available. Unlike standard or Femto LASIK — which correct power alone — Contoura Vision uses corneal topography to map 22,000 individual data points across your corneal surface. This creates a completely personalised treatment plan that corrects both your spectacle power AND the unique micro-irregularities of your cornea that no standard LASIK can address.
The result is not just functional vision — it is often the sharpest, most natural-quality vision a patient has ever experienced. Many Contoura patients report seeing better after surgery than they ever did even with their best prescription glasses.
Best suited for: Patients who want the absolute best possible visual quality; those with irregular corneas; professionals who depend on very sharp vision (surgeons, architects, pilots).
Approximate cost (both eyes): ₹80,000 – ₹1,20,000
SMILE is a completely flapless vision correction procedure — meaning no corneal flap is created at any point. Instead, a Femtosecond laser creates a small disc of corneal tissue (called a lenticule) inside the intact cornea, which is then removed through a tiny 2–4mm incision. The cornea is reshaped without the corneal surface ever being opened.
Because no flap is involved, SMILE preserves more corneal nerve fibres than flap-based LASIK. This makes it significantly better for patients who experience dry eyes, and reduces post-operative dryness compared to standard LASIK. The small incision also means the cornea retains more of its natural structural strength — making SMILE an excellent choice for sportspeople and those with physically demanding lifestyles.
Best suited for: Patients with dry eyes or dry eye tendency; athletes and those involved in contact sports; patients who prefer a flapless approach for peace of mind.
Approximate cost (both eyes): ₹1,00,000 – ₹1,40,000
ICL is not a laser procedure — it is a lens-based solution for patients who cannot have LASIK or SMILE due to high spectacle powers, thin corneas, or severe dry eyes. A thin, biocompatible lens made of Collamer material (proprietary to Staar Surgical, Switzerland) is implanted inside the eye, between the natural lens and the iris. No corneal tissue is removed and nothing permanent is done to the eye's surface.
ICL offers two important advantages no laser procedure can match: it is reversible (the lens can be removed), and it can correct very high powers — from -8D to -20D of myopia — that are well beyond the safe range for corneal laser procedures. Many patients who were told "you are not suitable for LASIK" are excellent candidates for ICL.
Best suited for: High myopia (-8D to -20D); thin corneas unsuitable for laser surgery; patients who want a reversible procedure; patients with severe dry eyes.
Approximate cost (both eyes): ₹1,50,000 – ₹1,90,000
PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) and its modern evolution TransPRK are surface-based laser procedures — no flap, no incision, no lenticule. The very outer layer of the cornea (the epithelium) is gently removed, the Excimer laser reshapes the corneal surface directly, and a soft contact lens is placed temporarily while the surface heals naturally over 3–5 days.
TransPRK is a touchless version where even the epithelium removal is done by laser, eliminating any manual step. Recovery takes slightly longer than LASIK (vision stabilises over 1–2 weeks rather than overnight), but the long-term visual results are equivalent. Because no flap is created and no tissue is extracted, PRK is particularly suitable for patients with corneas just below the thickness threshold for LASIK.
Best suited for: Slightly thin corneas; patients ineligible for LASIK or SMILE; certain occupational requirements (defence services sometimes require surface ablation).
Approximate cost (both eyes): ₹30,000 – ₹60,000
All cost ranges mentioned above are approximate. The final procedure recommendation and exact cost are determined only after your detailed LASIK Screening at Complete Eye Care, Gurgaon. Our goal is always to recommend the safest option for your eyes — never the most expensive one.

Your LASIK journey begins not with surgery, but with understanding. On Day 1, you attend a comprehensive pre-operative screening at Complete Eye Care that takes approximately 2 hours. This is the most important appointment in your entire LASIK process.
During screening, our team will perform:
• Pachymetry — measures your corneal thickness to confirm you have enough tissue for safe surgery
• Corneal Topography — maps the precise shape and curvature of your cornea
• Wavefront / Aberrometry — identifies optical irregularities unique to your eye
• Dry Eye Assessment — tear film stability and Schirmer's test
• Dilated Retina Examination — rules out peripheral retinal issues before surgery
• Refraction and Visual Acuity — confirms your current corrected and uncorrected vision
At the end of screening, Dr. Parul Sony personally reviews all findings and meets with you to discuss the results, procedure options, expected outcomes, and costs. She will only recommend surgery if she is confident it is the right choice for your specific eyes.
If you wear soft contact lenses, remove them at least 3 days before this appointment. For rigid contact lens (RGP) wearers, removal 2–3 weeks prior is recommended
On surgery day, you arrive at the clinic having had a light meal and wearing comfortable clothing with no eye makeup. A responsible adult must accompany you as you will not be fit to drive immediately after.
Here is exactly what happens:
1. Anaesthetic eye drops are applied — no injections, no general anaesthesia, no sedation
2. Your eye is gently positioned under the laser system
3. The Femtosecond laser creates the corneal flap in approximately 30 seconds (Bladeless LASIK) — you feel mild pressure but no pain
4. The flap is carefully lifted to expose the corneal bed underneath
5. The Excimer laser reshapes the corneal tissue — the actual laser treatment takes approximately 20 seconds per eye
6. The flap is repositioned and immediately bonds to the corneal surface — no stitches required
7. A protective shield is placed over the eye
The entire procedure takes 10–15 minutes per eye. You will spend approximately 30–45 minutes in the clinic before being escorted home. Rest is recommended for the remainder of that day — keep your eyes closed as much as possible and avoid screens.
Your first follow-up is scheduled for the very next day.
Your follow-up the morning after surgery is a brief but important visit. Dr. Sony or a senior member of our clinical team will check:
• Visual acuity — how well you are seeing with each eye
• Flap position and integrity — confirming it has healed correctly
• Absence of infection, inflammation, or dryness
• Your eye drop compliance
For the vast majority of patients, this appointment is a delightful one — most people are amazed at how clearly they can see just 24 hours after surgery. Any concerns or questions are addressed at this visit, and your follow-up schedule (typically Week 1, Month 1, and Month 3) is confirmed.
One of the first questions almost every patient asks is: how much does LASIK surgery cost in Gurgaon? It is a completely fair question — and we believe you deserve a straight answer rather than a vague "it depends" that forces you to come in just to find out.
The cost of LASIK surgery in Gurgaon depends primarily on two things: the procedure type and the technology platform used. Here is a clear breakdown of all options we offer at Complete Eye Care:
PROCEDURE | APPROX. COST
Standard LASIK (Blade-Assisted) | ₹20,000 – ₹40,000
Bladeless Femto LASIK | ₹50,000 – ₹80,000
Contoura Vision (Topography-Guided) | ₹80,000 – ₹1,20,000
SMILE (Flapless) | ₹1,00,000 – ₹1,40,000
ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) | ₹1,50,000 – ₹1,90,000
PRK / TransPRK | ₹30,000 – ₹60,000
Note* “The exact cost will be provided after a proper eye examination. The final cost may vary from the initially mentioned price.” We will share a complete itemised estimate before you make any decision.
Beyond the procedure type, a few other factors influence the final cost:
Technology platform: Different laser systems produce different outcomes. Older platforms are cheaper; newer systems with advanced eye-tracking, aberrometry integration, and higher pulse rates cost more to operate but offer measurably better results.
Your specific eye profile: Unusually high powers, thin corneas, or significant astigmatism may require more laser time or a more sophisticated algorithm, which can affect cost.
One eye or both: Most patients treat both eyes. If only one eye requires correction, the cost is approximately differ.
LASIK is generally classified as an elective cosmetic procedure and is not covered under most standard health insurance plans. However, there is an important exception: if your spectacle power exceeds -7.5 Dioptres (and in some policies, -5.0D or above), certain insurance providers do provide coverage. Insurers that sometimes cover LASIK for high powers include Star Health, HDFC Ergo, ICICI Lombard, New India Assurance, and Oriental Insurance.
Standard insurance does not cover SMILE, Contoura Vision, ICL, or PRK under any circumstances — these are considered elective enhancements.
Always verify with your specific insurance provider before your surgery date.
Choosing the right LASIK surgeon is not a minor decision — it is the single most important factor in determining the quality of your outcome. Your cornea is a permanent structure and LASIK reshapes it permanently. There is no undo button.

A Surgeon Who Will Tell You the Truth
Dr. Sony follows a patient-first philosophy that is central to everything Complete Eye Care stands for: she will recommend LASIK only if your eyes are genuinely suitable for it. If your cornea is too thin, your prescription too high, or your dry eye condition too significant for safe LASIK, she will tell you clearly — and recommend the alternative that is actually right for your situation.
This honesty is why 29,000+ patients have chosen Complete Eye Care, Gurgaon for their vision needs. When you consult Dr. Sony, you are getting a professional opinion — not a sales pitch.
Gurgaon has no shortage of LASIK centres. So why do patients from across NCR — and even from other cities — come to Complete Eye Care for their vision correction?
The answer comes down to one thing: the experience is entirely different from a high-volume hospital eye department.
At large hospitals and multi-surgeon chains, you consult with a senior doctor but often find yourself in the operating theatre with a different, more junior surgeon. That will never happen at Complete Eye Care. Dr. Parul Sony personally performs every LASIK and refractive procedure — the same hands that evaluated your eyes make the corrections.
The combination of MD from AIIMS New Delhi and FRCS from the Royal Colleges of Surgeons, UK, represents the highest available level of ophthalmological training. It is rare. It matters.
We offer Standard LASIK, Bladeless Femto LASIK, Contoura Vision, SMILE, ICL, and PRK. This means the recommendation you receive is based entirely on what is right for your eyes — not on which single procedure the centre happens to specialise in.
We see a limited number of patients each day so that every consultation, screening, and surgery receives the time and attention it deserves. You will never feel rushed or processed.
The quality of your LASIK outcome is determined before you ever sit down in the laser chair. Our 2-hour screening protocol is among the most thorough in Gurgaon — every measurement is taken by our team and reviewed personally by Dr. Sony.
We share a complete, itemised cost estimate before you commit to anything. What we quote is what you pay.
Standard follow-up visits (Day 1, Week 1, Month 1, and Month 3) are included in your LASIK package. If you have a concern at any point after surgery, you call us and we see you the same day.
To be a suitable candidate for Laser Vision Correction Surgery, you should be:
LASIK is not right for everyone. To access your suitability for Lasik, a detailed evaluation has to be done. This is known as 'LASIK Screening'. It involves a series of investigative procedures such as pachymetry, refraction, topography, dry eye testing, cornea scanning, retina screening and doctor consultation. These procedures take around 2 hours. if you are using contact lenses, it is best to remove them three days before the procedure.
This procedure is done under local numbing eye drops only. No injections are used. The LASIK treatment time usually takes around 20 seconds per eye, and the whole procedure takes around 10 minutes per eye. You may leave the hospital 15 minutes after the LASIK procedure.
A follow-up is done next to evaluate results.
You can book an appointment, at complete eye care, with Gurgaons best LASIK Surgeon to know is LASIK is suitable for you or not.
Once the postoperative follow-up and medications are over one can resume all normal activities like:
