LASIK ALTERNATIVES
PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy)
Photorefractive Keratectomy, or PRK, is an outpatient
procedure that treats nearsightedness, farsightedness
and astigmatism to reduce the need for corrective lenses.
Poor LASIK candidates may find PRK to be a great alternative.

CK (Conductive Keratoplasty)
CK is a safe, non-invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency
(RF) energy to reshape the cornea. CK allows us to reduce
the need for reading glasses for patients who enjoy normal
distance vision but are frustrated by the need to wear
glasses for their near work. Learn
more about CK.
MonoVision
MonoVision is a technique used to treat people with
presbyopia, which is normal age-related loss of the ability
to focus on near objects. Unlike traditional LASIK, MonoVision
LASIK may reduce the need for reading glasses in some
people over 40. Learn
