JEC is  the pioneer of LASIK surgery in Indonesia, and provide comprehensive technology, such as LASIK Xtra, Z2 LASIK, M-LASIK, and Surface Ablation (No Touch LASIK, PRK, LASEK, and EpiLASIK). Recently JEC has added the latest, cutting edge technology, the 7 Dimension Z-LASIK (7D Z-LASIK).

7D Z-LASIK is an innovating system using a high speed excimer laser (1050Hz) collaborated with a Ziemer Crystalline 5000 Khz machine (Femtosecond Laser). This combination gives 7D Z-LASIK the highest speed among all types of available excimer laser in the world today.

Normally, our eyes are regularly having an involuntary movement of 90 micrometer per millisecond, in all directions. Hence, the constant, exact focus of the eye’s position is very important when performing a laser process using LASIK. Since that 7D Z-LASIK by using the Latency-Free Tracking system, is capable to tracing the 7 dimensions of eye involuntary movement during the LASIK process,. This system is able to shoot the excimer laser without delay (zero latency time), following regular eye movement.

With its ability, this 7D Z-LASIK is able to fix refractive eye conditions such as minus, plus and cylindrical in a very short time; only 1.3 seconds per diopter. This ensures that 7D Z-LASIK can provide maximum safety and automatically increases patient comfort. 

Moreover, since the commencement of Laser Refractive surgery in 1994, JEC’ doctors has experience in optimizing the eye’s refractive ability in more than 5500 patients, which resulted that 98% of patients who underwent a LASIK procedure have no longer require, the need of using spectacles or contact lenses to be able to see things clearly. 

LASIK technology has been approved by leading institutions in the world, such as the US Army, US Navy, US Air Force, Marine Corps and NASA.

Candidate requirements for LASIK:

• Patient must be 18 years or older.
• Both eyes must be in healthy condition.
• Soft contact lenses must be removed 14 days before the LASIK procedure. Hard contact lenses 30 days before the procedure.
• Patient cannot be pregnant or be breastfeeding.

Procedural stages of LASIK

The first stage is to make a flap in the cornea using Femtosecond Laser* technology (Bladeless Laser Surgery). At JEC the flap is made using a Ziemer Cristalline 5000Khz. The advantage using the Ziemer Cristalline 5000Khz is that the flap-cutting process is faster and more precise with lower energy usage, resulting in a smoother incision. 

The second stage is after the flap is open. The lighting focus of the laser on the inner part of the cornea changes the cornea’s shape. The purpose is to eliminate the refraction abnormality (minus plus and cylindrical) by using the Schwind Amaris 1050Hz Excimer Laser.  The Excimer Laser is used to shape the cornea’s new surface.

After the laser treatment is done, the flap is repositioned.

In less than 3 minutes, the flap will attach to the cornea by itself, without the need to be sutured.

*Femtosecond Laser is an infrared light with the ability of cutting very accurately, compared to other technologies, using very little heat. The Femtosecond Laser works giving ultra-short pulses of light, and can make 1/100mm holes in only 1/4triliun per second.

Why choose LASIK in JEC Eye Hospital?

A doctor has to make many decisions in a short time, using the LASIK procedure. That is why it is so important and sensible to entrust the LASIK procedure to an experienced eye care centre with comprehensive facilities.

As the pioneer of LASIK surgery in Indonesia, JEC has experiences which no other LASIK service provider has. For example:

JEC has a professional team of ophthalmologists and paramedics with experience serving more than 27.000 LASIK patients since 1997. This number is far beyond other LASIK service providers.

98% of our patients, treated using a LASIK procedure, no longer need to use spectacles or contact lenses to be able to see clearly. LASIK procedure is done based on international standard hospital safety and uses the latest generation of LASIK technology. No need to wait for a long surgery schedule because JEC has a comprehensive team and facilities, which can accommodate for LASIK surgery every day.

Comprehensive pre-operative examination uses extensive and accurate diagnostic tools, so that any eye anomaly can be detected with precision. Our experience as pioneers has earned JEC the MURI record as the eye care provider who has performed the most LASIK procedures in Indonesia, as well as the achievement of the pioneer of LASIK in Indonesia.

Eyes are windows to the world, the human brain obtains 83% of information through the sense of sight. Having good eyesight to be able to see the beautiful world full of colors and unique shapes is everyone's dream. However, this is not always owned by everyone, considering that there are some individuals who have refractive errors (minus, plus, and cylinder). Most of us depend on glasses or contact lenses to see better. However, dependence on optical aids can interfere with daily activities, especially for those who have a lot of outdoor activities.

Laser Vision Correction Center

JEC as a pioneer in corrective surgery for each of these refractive errors has added the latest technology, namely ReLEx® SMILE (Refractive Lenticule Extraction - Small Incision Lenticule Extraction). ReLEx® SMILE is an innovation from Carl Zeiss by using the VisuMax® Femtosecond Laser machine to correct refractive errors.

The presence of ReLEx® SMILE further strengthens JEC's big step to establish the first Laser Vision Correction Center in Indonesia. Previously, JEC had the most complete technology in eliminating dependence on glasses or contact lenses with various technology options, such as Femtosecond Z-LASIK (7D Z-LASIK or Z2-LASIK), LASIK Xtra, No Touch LASIK, M-LASIK and Surface Ablation (PRK), LASEK and EpiLASIK). Now, JEC's big step is even more perfect with the presence of ReLEx® SMILE.

ReLEx® SMILE

ReLEx® SMILE is the latest technique to eliminate refractive errors (minus & cylinder) without making a flap (flapless), This minimizes the risk of flap shift or flap displacement so that this procedure is relatively safe (safer). This procedure is carried out in only one laser process and automatically makes the ReLEx® SMILE action process relatively faster, noted that it can be completed in just seconds (faster). ReLEx® SMILE provides painless postoperative comfort.

ReLEx® SMILE JEC can certainly be an alternative for those of you who want to see clearly without the need for glasses or contact lenses anymore. What's more, maximum safety and patient comfort are JEC's priorities.

FAQS

Who is suitable for the ReLEx® SMILE action?

This ReLEx® SMILE action is very appropriate for individuals who have high mobility, are active, dynamic and are involved in the world of contact sports such as boxing, diving, taekwondo, and others. With the flapless procedure on ReLEx® SMILE, making the patient less susceptible to trauma to the eye.

How is ReLEx® SMILE different from LASIK?

LASIK has two stages in eliminating refractive errors. First, by creating a flap in the Storma layer of the cornea using a femtosecond laser. Second, after the flap was opened, stromal tissue ablation was performed according to the size of the refractive error with an excimer laser to remove the minus/cylinder, then the flap was closed again.

In ReLEx® SMILE, the femtosecond laser acts directly within the stroma layer of the cornea to form a lenticule according to the size of the refractive error. Then the laser beam makes small incisions of about 2-4mm to remove the lenticule.

What are the side effects of the ReLEx® SMILE action?

Basically every operation has risks. However, laser vision correction is generally safe and has a low risk. Talk to your ophthalmologist at JEC to find out more about the benefits of laser vision correction procedures for you. Laser Vision Correction Center JEC, which has experience in treating eye refractive errors (minus, cylinder, plus) more than 150,000 patients since 1992.

How long will it take for vision to stabilize after the ReLEx® SMILE procedure?

The healing process can be different for each individual. In most people, visual acuity will be very good & stable in 1-3 days after the procedure. After the ReLEx® SMILE procedure, you can drive, work & do physical activities as usual without wearing glasses or contact lenses.

Where can I perform the ReLEx® SMILE procedure?

No need to go far abroad to correct your refractive error with the ReLEx® SMILE method. Now you can do it in the hospital. JEC Eyes who for years are dedicated to eye health.
