Optimal keratoplasty (Opti-K®) is an improved method of laser thermal keratoplasty (LTK) that is performed using a
continuous wave (cw) laser for anterior stromal heating together with a sapphire applanation window for epithelial
protection. Opti-KK® has been used to improve uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) in emmetropic presbyopes while
retaining or even improving uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) - a truly optimal result that is linked to corneal
multifocality produced by optimal keratoplasty. Opti-KK® has also been used to improve both UDVA and UNVA in
hyperopic presbyopes. The safety and effectiveness of Opti-KK® have been evaluated in a Nassau clinical study and in an
ongoing U.S. Clinical Trial. The procedure is noninvasive, simple, rapid, comfortable and repeatable. Although Opti-KK® VA improvements are temporary, treatments can be repeated whenever needed to maintain "vision rejuvenationK®".
