Comparison of Conventional and Custom With Iris Registration PRK Ablations: Assessment of Visual Function and Patient Satisfaction

The study objective is to compare the clinical outcomes using wavefront guided PRK with iris registration and conventional laser PRK using FDA-approved laser technology on the same patient.

Patients undergoing bilateral PRK on the same day will have one eye randomly assigned to custom wavefront guided PRK and the fellow eye treated with conventional PRK.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients deemed to be suitable candidates for bilateral PRK

Exclusion Criteria:
