What Makes The PRK LASIK Procedure The Best Choice?

When looking into a procedure that will fix your vision, you have two basic choices. You can either get a PRK LASIK procedure, or you can get the standard LASIK procedure that many people use. You may have heard of this procedure before, but you probably do not know that the PRK technique is actually older. It was approved by the government for use before the standard LASIK procedure. In many ways, it is actually a better option. You should read the following and consider this before you go in to have the surgery carried out. The main reason that people prefer PRK is that no corneal flap has to be created. This is what has to be done in a LASIK procedure, and it can lead to complications. If an error is made when the flap is being created, there could be problems with the healing process or the success of the surgery. You could have to go in to have the mistake corrected. Since creating the flap adds another step to the process, there is also just a greater chance that the surgeon will make a mistake while performing this operation. The less steps there are, the better the odds that nothing will go wrong. What this also means is that this type of surgery can be performed on those who have a thinner cornea. All eyes are different, so this has been something of a problem with the LASIK procedures. Those who have thin corneas cannot get the surgery because there is not enough room to make a flap on the thin cornea. When using the PRK tactic, this is not an issue. Anyone can get this procedure done because the laser surgery without a flap can be done on a cornea of any thickness. The downside of the PRK procedure is that it does take a bit longer to recover after it is done. This means that you will have more time during which you cannot go to work. It will be a bit more of an inconvenience to you since you will not be able to adjust to your life as quickly. However, this is a small price to pay to make sure that nothing goes wrong and that there are no complications. After all, it will take you much longer to recover if you choose the LASIK procedure and an error is made by the surgeon.
