PRK enhancement after Lasik

2018-05-11 09:22:12
I had LASIK in 2016. My prescription at that time was -11 in both the eyes. After lasik I had dry eyes and slightly enlarged pupil problem for which I was prescribed two drops. Anyways my vision was never 100% like it was when I was wearing contacts. So honestly I was disappointed by the results. At the moment my residual prescription is -3 in both the eyes. My doctor has suggested that I could get glasses or enhancement, where in he will not lift the flap but make some surface changes. I am assuming he's taking about PRK? I am confused and scared. Should I just get glasses or go for enhancement. Is PRK after lasik risky ?

Please be satisfied what you have. Glasses do improve  the personality. So don't hesitate to use glasses.
