>>LEARN MOREPRK
PRK is approved to treat low to moderate amounts of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism by removing tissue from the surface of the cornea. At Shapiro Eye Care, we also treat patients with thin or steep corneas with PRK. The outcome of PRK is similar to that of LASIK, and most people achieve 20/20 or better vision with PRK.
During PRK, Dr. Shapiro removes the thin layer that protects the cornea. The laser is then used to remove a precise amount of tissue while it reshapes the surface of the cornea. Immediately after PRK, a soft contact lens is placed on the eye while the cornea heals. Patients may experience blurry vision for three to five days after PRK and a moderate amount of discomfort until the outer layer of the cornea heals. Final visual results after PRK may not be fully realized anywhere from several days to a few weeks or more as the eye heals.
