Therapeutic PRK based on total corneal wavefront improves vision in irregular corneas

VIENNA — Therapeutic PRK guided by the CSO MS-39 device for anterior segment analysis allows for customized, tissue-sparing treatment of irregular corneas.
In combination with other treatments, it can improve vision in patients with keratoconus, according to Emilio Torres-Netto, MD, PhD, speaking at the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons meeting.
