Issue with Cornea
I recently got my tests done for lasik eye surgery and was told that i have gaps in my cornea (the inner most layer in eye) through a test called specular microscopy. I was told that they are in starting stage and i can ignore them. I was also told that it was safe to get PRK at this point but i want to know if its really safe to get the surgery done. Kindly help me out if possible. Thank you.
