We welcome you to our PHENICIA VISION center in Marseille for a comprehensive and free assessment to determine whether refractive surgery (LASIK, PRK, or SMILE) is an option for you.
How the PRESBYLASIK procedure works
ThePRESBYLASIK procedure takes less than 10 minutes per eye. Performed under local anesthesia using eye drops, it uses a femtosecond laser to create a flap and an excimer laser that will correct the ametropia by reshaping the cornea by creating different areas of focus. This allows for optimal visual correction at all distances.
PRESBYLASIK acts on the surface without making deep incisions.
This technique can also be combined with a or or corneal multifocality, depending on the patient's profile patient.
Multifocality is based on a gradual distribution of focus zones across the corneal surface.
Monovision involves correcting one eye for distance vision and the other for near vision, with a switch between the two eyes depending on the distance.
Only 10 min in the operating room
1 – Local anesthesia with eye drops
Your eye is numbed with anesthetic drops, ensuring that the procedure is completely painless.
2 – Creation of the corneal flap using the femtosecond laser
You will be asked to stare at a bright light while the surgeon precisely creates a corneal flap using a femtosecond laser.
3 – Reshaping the cornea with an excimer laser for precise vision correction
Once the corneal flap has been lifted, the excimer laser is used to reshape the cornea and correct your vision.
4 – Repositioning of the corneal flap
The corneal flap is then repositioned to allow natural healing.
This procedure is completely painless. It can correct conditions such as presbyopia, astigmatism, myopia, and hyperopia in a single operation. Some patients who have already undergone cataract surgery also choose LASIK to refine their vision correction.
Eligibility assessment - Eye laser surgery
Each treatment plan begins with a thorough eye exam. During this consultation, the doctor assesses the health of your cornea, your visual acuity, and your entire ocular system.
This balance sheet includes
- An assessment of near, far, and intermediate vision
- Corneal topography and measurement of visual depth of field
- An examination of the lens, history of cataracts, other eye disorders
- An analysis of prolonged wear of contact lenses or glasses
- A tear assessment and an oculomotor assessment
- Anterior and posterior OCT
- A retinography
- The back of the eye
Our eye surgeons provide detailed information about the PresbyLASIK surgical technique, which is specifically designed to correct presbyopia while taking your visual needs into account.
PresbyLASIK is indicated for patients over 40 who wish to reduce their dependence on glasses for near and far vision, depending on the stability of their correction and their visual comfort.
Each surgeon assesses the feasibility of PresbyLASIK surgery, taking into account individual characteristics: the condition of the cornea, medical history, and the patient's expectations.

Results: stable and lasting correction
PRESBYLASIK surgery offers rapid recovery, with vision generally clearer within 24 to 48 hours. Patients can resume their daily activities the very next day, although gradual visual adaptation may be necessary for intermediate vision. Moisturizing eye drops are often prescribed to reduce dryness, and careful post-operative follow-up ensures healing and stable results. This technique reduces or even eliminates the need for glasses for reading and close-up work, while simultaneously correcting other vision problems and ensuring long-lasting visual independence. It can also be offered after cataract surgery to refine vision correction. Finally, depending on the patient's profile, it can be an alternative to other treatments such as PRK or PRELEX. Using excimer laser technology, which has already been proven in numerous refractive procedures, PRESBYLASIK is a reliable and long-lasting solution for restoring high-quality vision.
PKR, LASIK, which solution is right for you?
Every eye is unique. That's why our doctors take the time to guide you toward the most appropriate technique, whether it's LASIK, PRK, or a combination treatment (especially after cataract surgery). Certain conditions, such as keratoconus, may require specific techniques. LASIK is often recommended for its precision, but PRK remains an excellent alternative for patients with thin corneas or a history of eye surgery.

FAQ: PRESBYLASIK
What is the PRESBYLASIK technique?
PRESBYLASIK is a refractive surgery using excimer laser, designed to correct presbyopia and other possible visual disorders such asastigmatism, myopia orfarsightedness. It reshapes the cornea in order to restore functional functional vision for near, far, and intermediate distance.
Who can benefit from PRESBYLASIK?
Anyone around around 45 years of age suffering from presbyopia. A comprehensive assessment is essential to assess compatibility, particularly in cases of cataracts, a history of surgery, or prolonged lens wear.
How is the procedure performed?
Thesurgery takes about 15 minutes per eye, under local anesthesia. The Excimer laser shapes the cornea by creating several areas of focus, thereby improving vision at all distances.
This treatment also adjusts to the geometry of the cornea to avoid undesirable side effects.
Is the procedure painful?
No. Thanks to the anesthetic drops, theprocedure is painless. You may experience slight discomfort or dryness for a short time. These post-operative are temporary.
As with any eye surgery, post-operative care is important to avoid complications.
How long does it take to recover?
Visual visual recovery is rapid. The majority of patients regain normal vision within a few days. A period of adjustment to intermediate vision is possible, particularly in cases of monovision or multifocality.
The eyes must gradually relearn how to work in synergy, which can vary from one patient to another.
How long is the recovery period after LASIK?
Visual recovery is very rapid : the majority of patients regain satisfactory vision the very next day. A gradual improvement continues over the following days. It is often possible to return to work and normal activities within 24 hours after the operation, unless there are specific contraindications.
Is the laser accurate?
Yes. The excimer laser Teneo laser adjusts in real time thanks toeye tracking.
Combined with the SIRIUS system, it enables precise and safe treatment precise and safe treatment.
This type of treatment is also used in other procedures such as PRK or LASIK, with excellent visual results.
Will I need to wear glasses after the surgery?
The goal is to eliminate reading glasses. However, according to theage or the progression of your presbyopia, minimal correction may be necessary in the long term.
Advantages over other treatments?
Compared to implants, monovision , it is a technique , or PRELEX (a type of implant used when the lens is clear). Presbylasik offers stable correction without intraocular foreign bodies.
