Is laser vision correction the right choice for you?

If you’ve ever dreamed of waking up and seeing clearly without reaching for your glasses or putting in contact lenses, laser vision correction might be on your radar. But how do you know if it’s the right choice for you?

At Specijalna bolnica za oftalmologiju “Dr Kozomara,” we understand that choosing laser vision correction is a big decision. That’s why we’re here to help guide you through the process—honestly, clearly, and with your safety as our top priority.

We’re also proud to be the only hospital in Bosnia that offers same-day LASIK , meaning you can have your pre-operative assessment and procedure on the same day, if you’re suitable.

What is laser vision correction?

Laser vision correction is a procedure that reshapes the cornea—the clear front part of your eye—to improve how light focuses on the retina. The result: clearer vision without glasses or contacts.

It’s used to correct:

• Nearsightedness (myopia)
• Farsightedness (hyperopia)
• Astigmatism (uneven curvature of the cornea)

Are you a candidate?

You might be a good candidate if:

• You are over 18
• Your vision has been stable for at least a year
• Your eyes are generally healthy
• You’re tired of relying on glasses or lenses

You might not be a candidate if you have certain eye conditions (like keratoconus), unstable vision, or medical conditions that affect healing.

That’s why we always begin with a full consultation. It includes detailed scans and measurements of your eyes.

Is it safe?

Laser vision correction is one of the most studied and commonly performed procedures in the world. With modern technology, experienced surgeons, and thorough pre-op screening, the risk of complications is low.

What is same-day LASIK?

At Dr Kozomara Eye Hospital, we are the only clinic in Bosnia that offers same-day LASIK. That means:

• You can have your consultation and surgery in one visit

• Ideal if you are travelling or have a busy schedule
