Abstract:
Excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy has become an increasingly popular surgical treatment for the correction of myopia. Unfortunately, no surgical technique can be entirely without complications. This article discusses the problems encountered following PRK for myopia in two main sections: those primarily refractive or optical in nature and those causing medical problems.
