AB  - Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) is a refractive procedure gaining popularity 
      that eliminates the risk of ectasia and flap complications that can occur after 
      laser in situ keratomileusis. Post-operative discomfort is a major drawback after 
      PRK and thus the management of pain and discomfort following PRK is of great 
      importance. We summarize corneal pain pathways and summarize current approaches 
      to pain management after PRK.
