PRK Surgery
Refractive Eye Surgery
Refractive Eye Surgery is a revolutionary procedure that corrects vision errors in the cornea, liberating patients from the need for glasses or contacts. With the advent of advanced eye mapping technology, we at Spokane Eye Clinic are at the forefront of this field, ensuring better patient outcomes.
PRK / Photorefractive Keratectomy
PRK is similar to LASIK surgery and works by reshaping the cornea. While LASIK is a more recognizable refractive surgery, PRK has been performed for longer and continues to demonstrate great reliability. Each procedure type demonstrates nearly equal outcomes in visual acuity. Advantages of PRK include:
-
Ability to treat many patients who did not qualify for LASIK (thin cornea, high myopia, allergies, military, occupation/activities)
-
No flap-related complications, such as flap dislocation from blunt injury
- Few enhancements and touch-ups are needed
