Transpupillary keratophakia (TPK) is a refractive surgery that involves molding a clear plastic contact lens onto the cornea using focused light energy, reshaping the curvature of the eye and improving vision for people with certain refractive errors. This outpatient procedure can correct myopia up to -10 diopters and astigmatism up to 6 diopters, but it may not be suitable for everyone due to potential risks such as corneal swelling or infection.
