In your eyes, there are two types of axes:

  • Pupillary Axis: A line that runs through the centre of the eye
  • Visual Axis: A line padding along the eye’s line of sight

The angle between these axes is 5 degrees.

While LASIK and SMILE laser operations target the pupillary axis, Contoura Vision treatment treats the visual axis, offering far finer visual outcomes than LASIK and SMILE.
