Touch-free SmartSurfACE (TransPRK) with SCHWIND AMARIS excimer lasers continues to enjoy strong demand. Around 2.4 million treatments have been performed so far.
TransPRK by SCHWIND is the only surface treatment in which the eye is not touched by any instrument. No suction is applied to the eye, and the cornea is not cut. The outermost, regenerating corneal layer (epithelium) does not need to be manually removed, and no alcohol solution is used. Instead, to improve the patient’s vision, the excimer laser models the cornea through the epithelium. The top corneal layer grows back quickly. Since 2009, TransPRK – with SCHWIND AMARIS laser systems – has grown more and more popular. The SmartSurfACE technique combines TransPRK with SCHWIND SmartPulse, a unique technology that greatly speeds healing and provides good vision quality immediately after the treatment.
