Comparison of single-step reverse transepithelial all-surface laser ablation (ASLA) to alcohol-assisted photorefractive keratectomy
Comparison of Single-Step Reverse Transepithelial all-surface laser ablation (ASLA) to Alcohol-assisted PRK
Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) was introduced more than 25 years ago as a corneal refractive surgical technique using the Excimer laser. The advent of laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) led to a decline in the popularity of PRK. Nevertheless, there is a recognition that surface ablation has...


Photorefractive keratectomy in the correction of astigmatism using Schwind Amaris 750s laser
Results of PRK in the correction of Astigmatism using Schwind Amaris 750s laser

Customized transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy for iatrogenic ametropia after penetrating or deep lamellar keratoplasty
Customized TransPRK for Iatrogenic Ametropia after penetrating or Deep Lamellar Keratoplasty
Excimer laser corneal ablation is one of the newest techniques to correct post-keratoplasty ametropia. However, laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and surface photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) are limited because of the irregularity of the corneal surface after transplantation. The major disadvantages...
