Abstract (2. Language): 
It is thought that one-fourth of the world's population is myopic. Therefore, refractive surgery has been a big market in the past ten years and today. The most common two techniques in this area are radial keratotomy and excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Excimer PRK has been accepted as an effective and safe surgery for correction of low to moderate myopia and astigmatism. In this technique, corneal tissue is removed with a high degree of predictability with virtually no damage to adjacent areas. [Journal of Turgut Özal Medical Center 1996;3(4):382-385]
Abstract (Original Language): 
Dünya nüfusunun 1/4 'nün miyop olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bundan dolayı refraktif cerrahi geçen 10 sene içerisinde ve günümüzde büyük bir market halini aldı. Bu alandaki en yaygın iki teknik radial keratotomi ve excimer lazer fotorefraktif keratektomidir (PKK). Excimer PKK düşük ve orta dereceli miyopi ve astigmatism tedavisinde güvenli ve etkili olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu teknikte bitişik dokulara zarar vermeksizin oldukça yüksek tahmin edilebilirlik içerisinde /corneal doku çıkarılmaktadır. [Turgut Özal Tıp Merkezi Dergisi 1996;3(4):382-385]
