What is the process of refractive surgery?

Refractive lens surgery An artificial lens (intraocular lens) can be implanted into the eye either in addition to, or instead of, the natural lens: phakic intraocular lenses (PIOL) are implanted into the eye without removing the natural lens, while the lens is removed when a refractive lens exchange (RLE) is performed.

The surface treatment techniques include photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), laser-subepithelial keratomileusis (LASEK), and epi-LASIK. In these three types of procedure, corneal tissue is ablated with an excimer laser just below the corneal epithelium, which is the outermost of the five layers of the cornea.

Antibiotic eye drops are usually prescribed after LASIK surgery to prevent potential infections, which is crucial for ensuring a successful recovery. These drops eliminate harmful bacteria that may enter your eyes while they are healing, therefore reducing the risk of complications.
