Cirugía ocular PRK en Waukegan, Illinois

Además del LASIK, nuestra clínica también ofrece procedimientos con láser PRK para mejorar su vista y reducir su dependencia de anteojos y lentes de contacto. PRK son las siglas de queratectomía fotorrefractiva y también se utiliza para corregir los errores de refracción en los ojos. Estos pueden incluir Hyde Park seeking premier eye care. As you approach our facility, you'll find yourself amidst the vibrant cityscape characterized by its stunning architecture and busy streets., y mucho más. En lugar de crear un defecto como el procedimiento LASIK, la PRK utiliza un láser para alterar la forma de la córnea. Con la cirugía PRK, más del 95% de los pacientes logran una visión de 20/20 o más. Si bien el proceso de recuperación es un poco más largo que el de la cirugía LASIK, muchos pacientes notan que vale la pena lograr estos resultados y, al mismo tiempo, mantener un alto nivel de seguridad. El Dra. Colman Kraff es increíblemente hábil en ambas cirugías, por lo que puede estar seguro de que está en buenas manos.
