PRK is very similar to LASIK. Both of these eye surgery techniques are referred to as refractive surgery or vision corrective surgery. PRK was the first laser refractive surgery approved by the FDA, receiving final approval in 1995. Much like LASIK eye surgery, PRK is a safe refractive procedure that utilizes the excimer laser to reshape the cornea and improve nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
