PRK Surface Ablation

in Nashville, Tennessee

PRK testimony To see a video of Dr. Wang's patients who have had LASIK and PRK relating their personal experience, click here

Photorefractive Keratectomy, also known as "PRK" and "surface ablation", is a laser resurfacing of the eye similar to LASIK, but without the flap. This procedure may be a better option than LASIK for some patients, and it may be combined with a Custom Wavefront ablation using the WaveScan and CustomVue technologies.

PRK can reduce or eliminate your dependence on contact lenses and glasses by changing the shape of the cornea. Dr. Wang determines the depth and pattern of the tissue to be removed. Then an excimer laser reshapes your cornea. The laser delivers gentle pulses of concentrated ultraviolet light beams to correct the shape of your cornea. You will have functional vision within days of the surgery.

If you are interested in learning more about surface ablation, call or email or Nashville, Tennessee PRK office today.
