How long after the Lasik surgery cna you wear contacts?

MiM asked:


I had the Lasik surgery a few months ago and yeah, my vision is fine and I don’t need to wear them for vision anymore but I want to wear color contacts once in a while. How long after the procedure can I wear them? I’ve heard from my doctor that if I wore contacts before the procedure I should be able to wear them again afterwards. My next appointment with him is in another 6 months so I’d like to know when I can wear them again from maybe people who’ve had experience with this.

Why is PRK preferred over LASIK if you want to become a pilot?

Venetian Girl asked:


Is it impossible to become a pilot if you have had LASIK? Why is PRK preferred over LASIK? Eye doctors and opthalmologists under you, can you give an answer to this? PRK has a longer recovery period, but still is it safer than LASIK, which seems to have a very fast recovery compared to LASIK? Can anyone recommend a good web site where I can get all this kind of information?
