LASIK & PRK – Advanced Laser Eye Surgeries
LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis) and PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy) are the two most common types of laser vision correction procedures. LASIK involves creating a thin flap in the cornea and reshaping it with a laser, while PRK removes the corneal surface layer without creating a flap. Both techniques are highly effective, safe, and FDA-approved, offering 20/20 vision for most patients. PRK is especially recommended for those with thinner corneas or certain occupational requirements where corneal flap creation is not advised. Both treatments are quick, typically take less than 15 minutes per eye, and have excellent long-term results.

Your Questions Answered
Faq
Which is better – LASIK or PRK?
Both are excellent. LASIK offers faster visual recovery, while PRK is better for patients with thinner corneas or those involved in high-impact sports.
How long does the procedure take?
Each eye takes about 10–15 minutes. You will be at the clinic for about 1–2 hours including preparation and recovery.
Will I see immediately after surgery?
Vision improves within hours, but it may be hazy on the first day. Most patients achieve functional vision by the next day.
Is laser vision correction safe?
Yes. LASIK and PRK are among the safest elective procedures with a very high success rate when performed by experienced surgeons.
Are there side effects?
Temporary dryness, mild light sensitivity, or glare at night can occur but usually resolve within weeks to months.
How long before I can resume normal activities?
Most patients return to work within 1–2 days after LASIK and about 3–5 days after PRK. Avoid swimming and eye rubbing for a few weeks.
