The Trans-PRK smart Surface method is the only non-contact laser vision correction method. Trans-PRK’s state-of-the-art capabilities helped optimize the procedure at the most important point. However, this applies almost exclusively to patients with myopia or astigmatism. If hyperopia is present, Trans-PRK treatment can be performed successfully only if the dioptric number is relatively low. Smart Surface is an original technology offered by Schwind Eye-Tech-Solutions.
Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK for short) is a surgical procedure that has been performed since 1987, and is considered one of the older methods of refractive laser surgery. The procedure itself involves removing the upper cellular layer of the cornea (epithelium) and then properly reshaping the underlying corneal tissue using an excimer laser. The treatments are effective and safe, and above all, they guarantee patients a significant improvement in vision.
Superficial vision correction method performed without chemicals, epithelium is removed with Epi/Clear tool , recommended for people with thin corneas and at risk of eye injuries
