No-Flap Laser Eye Surgery Explained | PRK & ASA Vision Correction
In this video, Dr. Smitesh Shah, Senior LASIK & Refractive Surgeon at Isha Netralaya, explains Flapless / Touchless Laser Eye Surgery, including PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) and ASA (Advanced Surface Ablation)—advanced vision correction procedures designed for patients who are not suitable for flap-based LASIK.
Unlike traditional LASIK, PRK and ASA do not involve creating a corneal flap. The laser treatment is performed directly on the surface of the cornea, making it a safer option for patients with thin corneas, dry eyes, or active lifestyles.
Dr. Shah explains the complete procedure step by step—from surface preparation to laser correction and healing. The surgery is bladeless, touchless, and highly precise, performed using US FDA-approved laser technology.
Vision recovery after PRK/ASA is gradual and controlled. Functional vision improves within a few days, and clear vision is typically achieved within 7 days, with further stabilization over the following weeks. These procedures offer long-term safety, strong corneal integrity, and excellent visual outcomes.
With proper evaluation and expert guidance, PRK and ASA are safe procedures with no long-term side effects, making them a reliable choice for permanent freedom from glasses.
