Researchers are developing an alternative to LASIK using electromechanical reshaping (EMR), a technique that reshapes the cornea without lasers or incisions, by altering tissue pH with electric potential. Early animal studies show promising results, including potential reversibility and fewer risks, but further research is needed before clinical application.
