I had -5.5 spherical and -1.5 cylindrical power in both eyes. I had my Trans PRK surgery done in Dec 2021, this is one of the best decisions I have taken in my life. I agree with what the doctor has said in the video. There was pain in the initial 3-4 days but it was not unbearable. After the hard lens was removed, there was no pain and my sight took 1-2 months to become 20/20. I was going back and forth while I was considering this surgery but let me tell you guys, It is worth the time, effort, and pain. After 1 year of surgery, I have a perfectly healthy vision! :)

A few quick question, please: - Is "PRK" FDA approved? - Can it be done with Keratoconus - especially early stages? - Is it safe for people under 40 / won't cause more thinning or speed up progression? - Generally, is it considered "safe" or "risky"? I'm asking because my doctor suggested both cross-linking (CXL) and PRK. Thank you.

Hi, my brother has Keratoconus in one eye. I do not have any symptoms of keratoconus but I was adviced to go for PRK correction to remove my power because I might inherit the condition on later stage. Can PRK correction prevent chances of me getting keratoconus in future ?

[@dkline9]

This is super late so you may have gotten an answer, but it won't prevent it. I am going in for PRK in 4 days, and have a history in my family. What my doctor told me was that PRK is being used it is less aggressive than traditional LASIK, and since Keratoconus is a thinning of that part of the eye, the less aggressive way would be better should I start to develop it in the future. I was told that had I not told them we had a family history of it, they likely wouldn't have even thought it.

On my check up one week after lasik, the doctor said that the flap on my right eye had a little wrinkle... he waited another week to see if the eye and the wrinkle will heal itself, but that did not happen, so he had to retouch it himself.. he just used somthing like a cottobud to flatten the wrinkle... I'm now 3 days after this procedure, but the eyesight hasen't changed a little bit. Should I go and consult another doctor?? Thank you in advance.

How is your eyes

Prk or contura which is better

[@NarayanaNethralayaEyeHospital]

Each eye is unique. Based on the extensive scanning including assessment of topography and mapping of the epithelial surface, the refraction to be treated and the parameters noted on clinical examination, the surgeon makes an informed choice on which surgery is the best for that particular patient. Every refractive surgery has its own set of advantages - the best one is the one best suited for YOUR eye.

Right eyes corneal thickness - 422 micrometre Left eyes corneal thickness - 441 micrometre And which eye surgery is best for me? Right -1.5(sp),-2.5(cy) Left -0.5(sp), -1(cy) I have a Government medical test where laser surgery is allowed but some doctors in nagpur says I can't do my Lasik surgery because of my low corneal thickness.

I had prk 3 months ago I cannot see up close or far away. The dr keeps telling me it will get better but it’s been really hard cause. Oh I have to wear cheater glasses at all times so I can function. My one eye is irritated all the time. The eye that was a -9. My other eye had had lasik 20 years ago so it wasn’t as bad. Do you think my eyesight is going to improve? It’s so disappointing. I am 50 yrs old. I am scared I am going to need another surgery. It was painful.

I had PRK done on Aug 19…and I still have a contact bandage on my eye now 10 days later. The doctors have changed my bandage 2 times and said my eye is not healed enough yet. Today I am going in for a 3rd time to check my eye. My vision has been much worse since the PRK. I am very worried. This PRK was done because my Synergy lens implant on Aug 4th 2021 did not correct my vision in my left eye. The Synergy lens worked for right eye but made my left eye worse than before the lens implant. So the dr is trying to correct my left eye with the PRK but I am very worried because now it’s not healing and my vision never improved but worsened instead. It has been over a year of extreme stress and worry about my left eye. How long is the longest a patient had to wear a contact bandage after PRK?

[@Matt-cw1mv]

Hey, what’s the update Lilli? Are your eyes better/ok now ?

[@Lilliancooks]

@@Matt-cw1mv my vision fluctuates from day to day and from moment to moment…it’s very strange. My reading vision is worse since the PRK, which is very upsetting because it was suppose to correct my vision, not make it worse. The only vision that seems to be ok is my medium distance…like for watching TV. And night vision is not good at all…I will not drive anywhere far from my home at night. I only drive where I am extremely familiar because I cannot see well. If it’s night time and raining, I will not drive at all. The PRK seems to have only changed the blurry vision but not correct it. It used to be a wavy blur but not it’s a straight blur. And my peripheral vision is very bad. It’s been a nightmare of a year since getting the Synergy lens implant. I think I will just have to live with my bad vision for the rest of my life…it’s very upsetting.

Mine was 540, the doctor suggested me prk. And as you want to join the police prk is better , don't go for lasik , as it leaves a flap cut on cornea. I don't know about Epicontura, whether it's a flap lifting procedure or no
