Advanced Surface Ablation (ASA), also known as Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK), is a bladeless LASIK alternative that does not use any sharp instruments and does not create a corneal flap typical of traditional LASIK.
PRK is effective in patients with thinner corneas, minor corneal irregularities, or for patients with specific occupations/hobbies such as contact sports. It has been shown to provide results that are just as good LASIK.
This procedure begins with the gentle removal of the epithelial tissue (the tissue covering the cornea) using a “soft brush”. Afterwards, your vision is corrected in the same manner as with LASIK. Using the same excimer lasers, the outer surface of the eye is reshaped to correct your nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. After the laser has fully reshaped the eye, a special contact lens is placed to protect the cornea while the epithelium heals underneath.
A good candidate for PRK is typically someone in their 20s or 30s who is seeking a safe and effective alternative to glasses or contacts, and would benefit from this LASIK alternative.
PRK is gentle and just as safe as LASIK. Based on your eyes and lifestyle, PRK may be the better option for you. We will always do what is best for your health and vision!
Like other technologies, Laser Vision Correction has evolved greatly in recent years. We are now able to address a wider range of visual issues and treat patients who were previously thought to be untreatable.
With three unique lasers we can customize a treatment for every patient. Each laser is the most advanced available in its class. Combined with the very latest in diagnostic equipment and software, our lasers are able to give most of our patients better than 20/20 vision. We are the only center in Oklahoma with this breadth of technology.
At ClearSight we believe Advanced PRK should be affordable on any budget.
