I had a consultation with an eye doctor for laser eye treatment. He has given me two options. : Trans PRK eye surgery and contoura vision eye surgery. I want to know what is the difference between Trans PRK surgery and contoura vision surgery? Does Trans PRK work on the visual axis? Why the price for contoura vision higher than Trans PRK? Please give detailed answer.

Contoura or Topoguided lasik is better option because it gives better quality of vision. It is costly because it is new technology
