PRK - Photorefractive Keratectomy Worldwide

Your Consultation Appointment First of all, we perform a series of detailed preliminary examinations. These provide us with precise and exact measurements of the eye and are important to rule out certain illnesses that may represent contraindications for a LASIK treatment. These tests include an evaluation of your depth perception and your colour and shape recognition, along with the determination of what you subjectively experience as optimum visual acuity. The diagnostic evaluation of your corneal surface using a colour-based video topography with25,000 points can reveal specific optical defects. We assess the thickness of your cornea three-dimensionally with 22,000 points in order to guarantee its stability following the treatment. Depending upon the dioptre value, the quality of the visual perception of your eye is measured using an aberrometer. This enables us to determine all optical defects in your eye and assess them individually. For this measurement, your pupils need to be dilated using eye drops, but they will return to their normal dilation a short time after the examination. Finally, we discuss your personal expectations of the treatment in detail and select the ideal procedure for you based on all your test results.

Sehkraft uses only the most advanced technology to conduct customized LASIK treatments.Our technology enables us to treat prescriptions within these guidelines: Near-sightedness (myopia) of up to –12 dioptres, Far-sightedness (hyperopia) of up to +6 dioptres, Astigmatism (corneal asymmetry) of up to 6 dioptres and in somecases, even higher prescriptions. Additionally, to correct very high refractive errors, our technology enables us to treat complex cases such as corneal scarring or other corneal irregularities
