LASEK
Laser Assisted Epithelial Keratectomy
LASEK is an eye surgery that combines many of the benefits of other vision correction surgeries. Laser epithelial keratomileusis, or LASEK, combines benefits of the two most commonly performed procedures — LASIK and PRK. LASEK eye surgery is used to treat astigmatism, nearsightedness, or farsightedness.
This procedure is used when the cornea (front surface of the eye) is too thin and cannot sustain a flap for LASIK. Foregoing flap creation preserves tissue and ensures that the cornea or front surface of the eye is not excessively thinned.
