ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of PRK procedure by estimation changes of visual acuity, refractive errors, IOP, pachymetry, high order aberrations before and after surgery. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
In the First Department and Clinic of Ophthalmology Medical School 22 patients went through ophthalmological examination for PRK procedure. In this study we used MEL 80 excimer laser. There were 13 women (15 eyes) and 5 men (7 eyes). The myopia was corrected from -1.75D till -6.5D. The patients were from 22 to 41 years of age.RESULTS:
The correction for myopia by PRK method with MEL 80 excimer laser is effective and safe laser procedure. Stabilization of the refraction post photorefractive keratectomy was after 2 months and there was no increase of intraocular pressure in all cases. The procedure increased the high order aberrations.
