Can UK-CAA detect PRK ?
 
hi guys....
i had a talk with several doctors and they all told me that PRK can not be detect with slit lamp examination, but it might be detected with topography.....any one has an idea if it might be detected at UK Gatwick CAA initial medical exam ?? what kind of tests do they perform to check on the eyes ???? do they do topography ??


thanks

Hi.

No, they don't do topography if I recall, but they do look at your eyes with a slit lamp.

You may get a better response from the vision other than colour vision thread or find something in there of interest.

Good luck.

i have checked my eyes with many doctors and they did not notice with the slit lamp...so i am sure that with the slit lamp they cant know...but what other tests do they do ? is there a special test that can detect PRK ?


thanks
