LASIK is the typical choice but PRK is done when you have a thinner than average cornea because it does require as thick a cornea. Safety concerns exist with LASIK only if your cornea is thin . PRK is much less comfortable but only the first week.
LASIK is more comfortable and will be the right choice in most cases but rely on a good Laser doctor for the right advice. NEVER NEVER NEVER choose a laser doctor based on the lowest price. The best national group is TLC Laser Centers always safe and ultra careful and reliable.
I am Dr Groden, a surgeon with LasikPlus. Both prk and lasik are excellent procedures to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and/or astigmatism. The same laser is used in each- in prk the laser is applied to the surface of the cornea, in lasik the laser is applied under a thin corneal flap. The results are the same, but prk takes longer for final vision to be achieved. For some eyes and patients prk is the better and safer procedure. For others, lasik is the better choice. Only a complete eye exam by a doctor specializing in laser vision correction can determine which is best for you. After such an exam the doctor will discuss with you the pros and cons of each procedure specific to you and your eyes. For more information go to
