Improve your vision with PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy). A trusted laser vision correction that reshapes the cornea and sharpens vision without creating a flap.

PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy)

PRK Steps

Step 1: Eye Screening

We first perform a comprehensive eye exam to determine if you are a good candidate. ICL is often recommended for patients with high prescriptions, thin corneas, or dry eyes.

Step 2: Preparation

On the day of surgery, numbing drops are applied so you feel comfortable. No injections or needles are needed.

Step 3: Removing the Surface Layer

Instead of creating a flap (like in LASIK), the thin outer layer of the cornea (epithelium) is gently removed

Step 4: layer Reshaping

An excimer laser precisely reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.

Step 5: Healing Lens Placement

A clear, soft contact lens (called a “bandage lens”) is placed on the eye to protect it while the surface cells naturally heal.

Step 5: Recovery

The surface layer regenerates over 3–5 days, during which mild discomfort or blurriness may occur. Full visual recovery takes a bit longer than LASIK, but the results are just as clear and permanent.

Why Patient Choose PRK?

  • No corneal flap needed (ideal for thin corneas)
  • Excellent long-term vision results
  • Safe and proven procedure
  • Preferred for patients with active lifestyles or higher risk of eye trauma

Frequent Asked Questions

PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) is a type of laser vision correction. Like LASIK, it reshapes the cornea with a laser to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The difference is that no flap is created — instead, the thin surface layer of the cornea is gently removed and allowed to regrow naturally.

  • Have thin corneas and are not suitable for LASIK
  • Lead an active lifestyle with higher risk of eye trauma (athletes, military, etc.)
  • Want excellent long-term vision correction without a corneal flap

During the procedure, numbing drops keep you comfortable. After surgery, mild discomfort or scratchy sensation can occur for a few days while the corneal surface heals.
