Hi there. Consult with full topography reports. SILK is a Flapless Procedure. Wavelight is an ai based LASIK procedure. Lasik is a flap based procedure. Flap based procedures are old, and do have their own disadvantages, mainly more of drye eye incidence. Moreover, ai integration to lasik doesn't have long term data. But lasik itself is a time tested procedure. Again will depend on your topography and your nature of job and lifestyle. You can get a consultation to talk more about the procedures. Regards
