Hello everyone,
So I'm a yuk and if I get things approved, I could opt to get PRK surgery within the year. I have heard some unsavory things about the surgery though and I know that not everyone has 100% satisfaction with it. There are briefings about the surgery every month and I plan on attending the next one but I was just wondering if anyone here has information about the long term safety of the surgery. I'm talking like 50, 60 years down the road...I know the technology has only existed for only like 20 but some say that we don't know what effect PRK has on our eyeballs in the long term (which is the most important, I think).
Thanks everyone - I hope life continues to treat you well and that your families remain healthy.
