What are the risks and side effects of CK?
Because CK is minimally invasive, the procedure has exhibited very minimal risk and almost no side effects. During the first 24 to 48 hours after CK, you may experience some discomfort, including a foreign-object sensation in the eyes. You may also experience initial slight over-correction of your vision, which stabilizes during the following weeks. However, because CK doesn’t cut or remove tissue, many of the side effects associated with other vision treatment procedures have not been observed with CK. There has not been a single major complication reported.
