CK (Conductive Keratoplasty)
Conductive Keratoplasty (CK), a U.S. FDA approved procedure, utilizes the controlled release of radio-frequency energy, instead of laser, to reshape the cornea. A thin probe to apply this energy to the peripheral cornea. The result is the desired refractive effect of steepening the central cornea. This minimally-invasive procedure takes about fifteen (15) minutes, and is performed with numbing eye drops for anesthesia.
