Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Laser Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) is a common refractive surgery.
  • Improving PRK outcomes requires precise laser delivery and reduced healing complications.
  • Existing excimer laser systems can lead to irregularities and regression.
