With the precise excimer laser
A diluted alcohol solution is applied to the cornea
to loosen the uppermost layer, the epithelium.
The epithelium is removed either manually with a
surgical instrument or pushed aside.
An excimer laser reshapes the corneal tissue point by
point. Within seconds, the refractive error is corrected.
A protective contact lens is placed on the eye at the
end of the procedure until the epithelium has regenerated within a few
days.
Same Procedure – Different Approaches
The cornea consists of multiple layers. In PRK, the top layer (epithelium) is removed
to
reshape the underlying corneal tissue. Depending on the removal technique, different
names are used, but the actual laser procedure remains the same. Essentially, all these
names refer to the same method.
The epithelium is loosened using alcohol and then fully removed.
It grows back naturally during the healing process.
The epithelium is loosened with an alcohol solution and pushed
aside. After the laser treatment, it is repositioned onto the
cornea.
A mechanical device lifts the
epithelium to the side before the laser procedure begins.
The epithelium is vaporized, and
the underlying corneal tissue is reshaped with the laser.
PRK – The Preferred Choice in Special Cases
Patients with thin corneas
who are not
suitable for
LASIK.
Individuals for whom a
corneal flap
could
be
problematic (e.g., combat
athletes).
People with irregular corneas
or
specific
corneal diseases.
Highest Precision.
The MEL90 is the most precise
excimer laser from Zeiss.
This laser allows even complex vision impairments to be corrected with
micrometer precision. It is also used for
enhancement procedures, treatments
for corneal diseases, or corrections for age-related vision changes
(presbyopia).

PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) is a laser vision correction procedure
used to treat nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and
astigmatism. In this technique, the outermost layer of the cornea
(epithelium) is removed, and the underlying corneal tissue is reshaped using
an excimer laser to improve vision.
You may be a good candidate for PRK if you are over 18 years old, have had a
stable prescription for at least one year, have a thin cornea and are not
eligible for LASIK, and do not have serious eye conditions like keratoconus
or glaucoma. A comprehensive pre-examination will determine if PRK is the
right option for you.
The PRK procedure is performed in several steps. First, you receive numbing
eye drops to ensure comfort. Then, the outermost corneal layer (epithelium)
is removed, either mechanically or using a special alcohol solution. Next,
an excimer laser reshapes the cornea to correct vision. Finally, a soft
contact lens is placed on the eye to protect it while the epithelium
regenerates. The total procedure time is approximately 10–15 minutes per
eye.
During the PRK procedure, you won’t feel pain due to numbing eye drops.
However, moderate discomfort or pain may occur after the procedure, as the
cornea heals. These symptoms usually last a few days and can be managed with
pain relievers and eye drops.
Recovery from PRK is longer compared to LASIK or SMILE. During the first few
days, discomfort and a foreign body sensation typically subside within 3–5
days as the epithelium regenerates. In the first week, the protective
contact lens is usually removed after about one week. Over the first few
months, vision gradually improves, and it can take up to three months for
full stabilization.
PRK offers multiple advantages. It is ideal for patients with thin corneas
who are not suitable for LASIK. Since no corneal flap is created, PRK
eliminates the risk of flap-related complications. Additionally, PRK
provides long-lasting results, offering permanent vision correction without
the need for frequent adjustments.
