PRK (PhotoRefractive Keratectomy)
PRK is similar to LASIK, in that the same type of laser is used, however a corneal flap is not created. Instead, after removing the most superficial cells of the cornea, the laser beam is applied directly to the eye to reshape the cornea. PRK is less frequently used since the development of LASIK, but in some individual cases such as eyes with very thin corneas or in patients with high myopia, PRK may still be the procedure of choice. Even though the initial healing is a day or two longer than that of LASIK, the long term effects are the same.
