How long does PRK take?

Dr. Matthew Russell reveals how long PRK usually takes

PRK takes a matter of minutes to perform.

For most patients who want to have PRK with our particular technology, the procedure can be done as an all laser procedure. The surface layer of the cornea is removed with laser, and then the cornea is sculpted or reshaped to correct the vision focusing issues, and that’s all done within a matter of a few minutes.
