PRK Surgery
PRK is similar to LASIK, but the refractive surgery technique does not involve making a corneal flap. Patients with thin corneas or certain occupations or hobbies that could disrupt a corneal flap can benefit from PRK. Like LASIK, PRK can give you 20/20 vision and eliminate your dependency on glasses and contact lenses.
