As 2025 comes to a close, more and more are considering LASIK as a top option to improve their eyesight. Naturally, concerns about pain, comfort, and the overall procedure often come up, and it’s normal to have questions about what to expect during and after surgery. Now, Borough Lasik Center (BLC) brings world-class bladeless eye procedures to the people of Western Visayas, making it easier than ever to achieve safe, precise vision correction with minimal pain. With advanced technology and expert surgeons, BLC helps patients see life clearly and enjoy lasting results.
How do Bladeless Procedures work? (Differentiate all bladeless procedures)
Bladeless procedures use advanced laser technology instead of traditional blades. This method improves accuracy, lessens discomfort, and allows for faster recovery. At Borough Lasik Center, patients can choose from several bladeless procedure options:
TransPRK – A surface laser procedure that reshapes the cornea without creating a flap. This is ideal for patients with thinner corneas, active lifestyles, or those seeking a non-invasive alternative to LASIK.
Z LASIK – A fully customized LASIK procedure tailored to each patient’s eye structure, delivering sharper, clearer vision. Unlike Standard LASIK that uses a microkeratome blade to create a flap, Z LASIK is a bladeless, highly precise procedure with faster recovery, perfect for more complex vision problems.
CLEAR (Corneal Lenticule Extraction for Advanced Refractive correction) – An advanced bladeless and flapless vision correction procedure that removes a small corneal lenticule to correct vision.
Each procedure is personalized and designed to provide a smoother experience and quicker recovery, allowing patients to return to their daily life with minimal downtime.
Cataract Surgery: Bladeless VS Conventional
Bladeless Laser Cataract Surgery (also known as FLACS or Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery) uses femtosecond laser technology to make precise, bladeless incisions offering faster healing and improved accuracy.
Compared to traditional cataract surgery, the bladeless approach offers:
- Quick procedure time
- Faster recovery with minimal downtime
- Lower risk of complications
- Improved accuracy and visual outcomes
Conventional cataract surgery, on the other hand, relies on manual blades, which can be effective but are generally less precise and may require a longer healing period. In this traditional approach, the cloudy natural lens is manually removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). However, with bladeless technology, the process becomes more accurate and consistent, allowing patients to experience safer, more comfortable surgery with faster recovery and great results.
Convenience and Accessibility
BLC makes advanced vision correction accessible and convenient for patients across Western Visayas by offering same-day eye screenings as well as pre- and post-operative care that includes medications and follow-up appointments.
To further enhance patient comfort, transportation from the ferry port to the BLC clinic is available for patients, including those from Bacolod. With these services, residents can undergo bladeless procedures and cataract surgery without the need to travel far from home. BLC continues to make world-class eye care easy, comfortable, and stress-free for every patient.
