Laser suture lysis is a procedure used to break or release sutures in the eye that may be causing complications following surgery. This is commonly performed after corneal surgery or cataract surgery when the sutures used to secure the eye may be too tight, causing discomfort, blurry vision, or astigmatism.
During the procedure, a laser is used to carefully cut or loosen the sutures, which helps to reduce tension on the eye and restore normal shape and function. This technique is precise and minimizes the risk of damaging surrounding tissues.
Laser suture lysis is an effective solution for relieving symptoms caused by sutures that do not dissolve properly, helping to improve the patient's vision and comfort after eye surgery.
