In the mid-1980’s the development of the Excimer Laser was a major breakthrough in this field. It was proven to be a safe and reliable technique for the treatment of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. In 1996 the FDA granted approval for PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) using the Excimer laser. Since that time, a new technique has been developed which provides a more accurate, comfortable and quicker healing form of laser vision correction. This newer technique is called LASIK (laser assisted in-situ keratomileusis). Both procedures use light energy (the excimer laser) to reshape the cornea so that images are properly focused on the back of the eye (retina).
