Another vote for PRK, and for the same reason: I didn't want the flap. You'll want to invest in a Costco sized box of those rewetting drops for the next several years because dry eye will be a constant thing
I do have halos, but I don't think I have light sensitivity and I have been constantly looking at a screen for the past innumerable years without ill effects. I'm coming up on the age where I'm going to have to consider a touch-up or something similar because my non-dominant eye has reverted a little. I only notice it when covering one eye at a time
If I had to do it over again, I 100% would still choose PRK
