How does Femto LASIK work?
Femto LASIK uses two advanced lasers to reshape your cornea with precision. First, a femtosecond laser creates a thin flap in the cornea. Then, an excimer laser reshapes the underlying tissue to correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism.
Finally, the flap is repositioned to heal naturally. The entire procedure takes 8–10 minutes per eye, is pain-free with anesthetic drops, and offers vision recovery within 24–72 hours.

FAQs on Femto LASIK in Belgium
Learn about Femto LASIK laser eye surgery at Medifocus Leuven (Belgium).
What is Femto LASIK eye surgery?
Femto LASIK is a two-step laser eye procedure. A femtosecond laser creates a thin corneal flap, then an excimer laser precisely reshapes the surface underneath to correct myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism. At Medifocus, Femto LASIK is performed using the ZEISS VisuMax femtosecond laser and the MEL 80 excimer laser.
How long does Femto LASIK take and when will I see clearly?
The treatment takes approximately 10 minutes per eye. Most patients can see clearly again within 24 hours and are able to drive. Full visual stability is typically reached within 1 to 4 weeks following the procedure. Medifocus schedules follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery every step of the way.
Who is a candidate for Femto LASIK in Belgium?
Most adults aged 20–50 with a stable prescription and healthy eyes are eligible for Femto LASIK. Adequate corneal thickness is also essential for safely creating the flap. Exact eligibility is confirmed during a thorough pre-operative assessment at Medifocus Leuven, including corneal topography and refraction testing.
What are the risks of Femto LASIK?
Femto LASIK is very safe but, like any laser eye surgery, carries minimal risks such as dry eyes or temporary halos. Using CE-approved lasers, precise corneal mapping, and experienced surgeons, we keep complication rates extremely low and ensure full follow-up support.
Femto LASIK vs ReLEx SMILE — which is better?
Both techniques correct vision effectively, but in different ways. ReLEx smile is flap-free with faster healing; Femto LASIK can treat a broader range of prescriptions. There is no universally better option — your eye anatomy and prescription determine which delivers the best outcome. Medifocus discusses both during the pre-operative assessment.
