| In general, refractive surgery is any procedure designed to reshape the eye and reduce or eliminate the need for contacts and glasses. Laser vision correction, most commonly in the form of LASIK or PRK, is the most well-known and popular form of refractive surgery. LASIK and PRK are common procedures, applicable to most people wearing corrective lenses, but there have also been some new and exciting surgical advances, including corneal rings , Laser Thermal Keratoplasty, Refractive Lensectomy, and Intraocular Lenses . Radial Keratotomy, the first well-known type of refractive surgery, has now become obsolete due to the advancements in laser technology. |
