How CK
Works |
Conductive Keratoplasty (CK) is a quick procedure with no
cutting involved. You don't even have to go to an outpatient
surgery center. In just three minutes, a doctor can perform CK
in his or her office.
CK can change how the eye
focuses light by reshaping the surface of your eye (cornea).
When the shape is changed,
light can be refocused on the correct part of your eye (retina).
To produce this reshaping, CK uses the controlled release of RF
energy to heat and shrink corneal tissue. This steepens
the cornea and allows light to properly focus on the retina
again. |
