What is PRK?
PRK is a laser vision correction procedure that reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. While both PRK and LASIK achieve similar visual outcomes, PRK may be the preferred choice for many patients. Our surgeons use state-of-the-art laser technology to achieve precise, predictable results tailored to your unique vision needs.
Is PRK Right for You?
PRK may be recommended over LASIK for several reasons:
• Thin corneas that may not be suitable for LASIK
• Active lifestyle or profession with higher risk of eye injury
• Contact sports participation
• Military or law enforcement career requirements
• Previous eye surgery or corneal scarring
• Dry eye concerns
• Larger pupil size
Comprehensive PRK Care
Our approach to PRK includes:
• Detailed pre-operative evaluation to determine candidacy
• Advanced laser technology for precise vision correction
• Personalized treatment plans based on your vision goals
• Thorough post-operative care and monitoring
Recovery Expectations
While PRK recovery is typically longer than LASIK, many patients choose PRK for its advantages:
• No corneal flap creation, eliminating flap-related complications
• Preserves more corneal tissue
• Excellent long-term stability
• Reduced risk of complications from eye trauma
