LASIK (laser in-situ keratomileusis) - LASIK are generally for those patients who are nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism. In this surgery, the surgeon reshapes the underlying corneal tissue to focus light into the eye and reach the retina. The procedure requires precision, and advancements in computer imaging technology allow LASIK specialists to create detailed corneal images and guide the treatment.
PRK (photorefractive keratectomy)
In this procedure a laser is used to reshape the cornea. Unlike LASIK, PRK only reshapes the surface of the cornea. PRK is for mild to moderate nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. PRK can also work with computer imaging technology.
LASEK (laser epithelial keratomileusis)

ALK (automated lamellar keratoplasty)
ALK is for those people who have suffered from severe nearsightedness and few levels of farsightedness, although LASIK has all but replaced ALK as a method of correction. No laser is used, and instead, the doctor makes an incision in the sub-layer of the cornea to reshape and correct vision.
RLE (refractive lens exchange).
RLE is a procedure for correcting cataracts. It is also used to correct the thin corneas, dry eyes, and other minor problems.
EpiLasik
This procedure is very similar to PRK. The doctor separates a thin layer of the cornea and then reshapes it. The layer may either be removed or replaced. The doctor finishes the procedure by applying a soft contact lens to protect the area until it can fully heal.
PRELEX (presbyopic lens exchange)
PRELEX is a procedure where the eye specialist implants a multifocal lens to improve flexibility and restore focus to get over the condition of Presbyopia.
