TransPRK / PRK Surgery

Touch-free, flapless laser vision correction — the safest option for thin corneas and active lifestyles.

What is TransPRK?

TransPRK (Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy) is the most advanced evolution of PRK — a completely touch-free, flapless laser vision correction procedure. The excimer laser gently removes the corneal epithelium and reshapes the underlying tissue in a single, seamless step.

Because no flap is created, TransPRK preserves maximum corneal biomechanical strength — making it the preferred choice for patients with thin corneas, defence aspirants, contact sports athletes, and anyone who wants to eliminate flap-related risk entirely.

Why patients choose TransPRK

Completely touch-free

No blade, no flap, no suction — the laser does everything in a single step.

Best for thin corneas

Preserves maximum corneal tissue — preferred for thin or borderline corneas.

Ideal for active lifestyles

No corneal flap means zero risk of flap dislocation — perfect for athletes and defence personnel.

Stable long-term results

Once healed, vision is exceptionally stable with no flap-related issues.

Ideal candidates

  • Patients with thin or borderline corneas
  • Defence, paramilitary, police and CAPF aspirants

  • Patients with corneal scars or surface irregularities
