Preferred practice patterns for photorefractive keratectomy surgery.

Abstract:

:Over the past two decades, excimer laser-based refractive surgery procedures have been successfully established for their safety and satisfactory visual outcomes. Surface ablation procedures or photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) are practised commonly for the correction of refractive errors including myopia, astigmatism and hyperopia. Satisfactory visual outcomes are achieved in majority of cases, although a very small percentage have issues related to corneal haze, regression, and its associated visual disturbances. To ensure optimal outcomes and to minimize complications, certain keys to success have been designed on the basis of the current review of literature on surface ablation procedures.
