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.
