I had custom LASIK done about 7 years ago where they cut the "flap" with a laser. After a month my vision stabilized but it was still not good enough, so they did a second "touch up" operation. I've had great vision ever since.
I even had an injury to my eye where a tree branch came full force into my eye, and there was no damage to the "flap".
I have had very little if any glare or halos symptoms.
Given this, in hindsight I would probably go with PRK because it seems to give the eye more structural integrity and possible more post-operation options?
In speaking to an opthamologist recently, she mentioned that lense implants are her preferred choice.
- Namrog84 10y agoAlthough I had PRK done the first time(2010). I havejust had it done a 2nd time this week for 1 eye. I didn't know this until recently, but apparently PRK is the only option if its been 1+ year since your first surgery (regardless of what your first time was). I never liked the idea of the flap, so among many reasons, I had gone with the option without a flap the first time.
