Advanced PRK Corrective Laser Eye Surgery System
What is PRK?
Advanced PRK corrective laser eye surgery involves removing the surface layer of the cornea (the epithelium) with a brush and then applying the laser to the exposed corneal area. The epithelium then regenerates. After surface treatment using Advanced PRK your vision will clear within the first two or three days.
As the cornea heals, its new shape becomes smoother, allowing vision to improve over time. Within days after the corrective eye surgery, you will notice that your distance vision without glasses has greatly improved and will continue to do so over subsequent weeks. Advanced PRK is now used only for lower, long-sighted corrections.
