PRK has been performed since 1986. Prior to LASIK, PRK was the most commonly performed laser vision correction procedure. PRK differs from LASIK as no flap is created during the PRK procedure. PRK may be suitable for people with larger pupils, thin corneas, have other corneal issues or dry eyes.
Conventional LASIK transformed ophthalmology when it became widely available as a vision correction procedure. Custom LASIK surgery has taken the advances of conventional LASIK many steps further by allowing surgeons to correct visual aberrations that previously could not be addressed with traditional LASIK surgery. Custom LASIK eye surgery offers patients a better chance of achieving visual acuity superior to that provided by contacts or glasses.
