Honest information
PRK is a safe and effective procedure, but like all surgeries, it carries some risks and potential complications.
Dry eyes
Temporary dryness and discomfort, managed with lubricating eye drops.
Hazy vision
Fluctuating vision clarity during the healing process, usually resolves in a few weeks.
Infection
Rare but possible. Antibiotic drops prescribed to prevent infection.
Over/under-correction

Scarring
Rare scarring of the cornea, which can affect vision.
If something concerns you at home
Use prescribed eye drops as directed, avoid rubbing eyes, and wear sunglasses to protect from UV light. Contact your coordinator if you experience severe pain or vision changes.
