PRK, Lasik and femtosecond laser are the benchmark techniques in refractive surgery, but with direct contact with the eye and corneal incision. Trans-PCR is the only truly 100% laser solution where the treatment is carried out remotely, without any contact with the eye. It enables all visual defects such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia to be corrected in around twenty seconds: let's find out more.

Interview with Doctor Marc Chemla on Trans PKR. Answers to all questions about Trans PKR, the only truly contactless 100% laser technique to correct myopia, astigmatism, hyperopia and presbyopia.
Trans-PKR is a recent improvement of PKR. It is a technique that has now been validated by numerous international studies. It allows the correction of visual defects. The advantages over conventional PKR are clearly established for the comfort of the patient because while maintaining the safe aspect of PKR we will be able to significantly reduce the side effects (less post-operative pain and faster visual recovery). It is offered exclusively on Amaris lasers marketed by the renowned German firm Schwind. The Hauts de France Ophthalmological Center exclusively uses the Schwind Amaris 1050 RS Laser, the most recent and efficient Schwind laser.
How long did the pain last? No pain. On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate the pain on the first day? 1/10. How long did it take to regain sufficient visual acuity for work? 4 days. And for driving? 6 days. "No pain thanks to medication. I had difficulty tolerating light for 48 hours. Many thanks to the whole team."
