PTK allows the removal of superficial corneal opacities and surface irregularities. It is similar to photorefractive keratectomy, which is used for the treatment of refractive conditions. The common indications for PTK are corneal dystrophies, scars, opacities, and bullous keratopathy.[1] References1. ^[PTK in the developing world]http://www.ophthalmologyweb.com/JournalUpdates.aspx?spid=23&jid=15009 External links
