Both LASIK and PRK give excellent results.
Both use an Excimer Laser to reshape your cornea.
With LASIK a thin flap of corneal tissue is lifted and the laser correction placed on the underlying corneal bed and the overlying corneal flap then repositioned.
With PRK the correction is placed on the surface of the cornea.
However, the surface of the cornea is covered by a thin layer of clear skin, called epithelium, that if lasered, would grow back and the laser effect negated.
In PRK, but not LASIK, we have to remove this layer of epithelium prior to performing the Laser.
