Conductive Keratoplasty
For better vision Conductive Keratoplasty or CK, as it is commonly known, is an eyesight correction method to cure vision related problems such as hyperopia, farsightedness and presbyopia.

While many eye surgeries are performed using laser, Conductive Keratoplasty is performed using a small pen shaped instrument.
The instrument emits radiofrequency energy and produces heat that alters cornea's shape.
Once the shape of the cornea is corrected then it will be able to precisely focus the light on eye thereby giving better reason.
