Wait, you can get PRK more than once?

I had it done about fifteen years ago. My vision was perfect for a decade, but now I'm back in glasses.

PRK recovery was certainly uncomfortable, but I'd gladly do it again for another decade without glasses.

Yes, if the ophthalmologist messes up. Sadly!

My opthalmologist told me I had enough corneal thickness to get PRK done again if I wanted.
