Lasik surgery?

[The Rat]

I went with PRK over Lasik because I read more reports of Lasik people having dry eyes, as well as reports that if you're in some kind of traumatic head injury situation, the flap created by the lasik can come dislodged. I had my PRK done before having to head back overseas for a couple more contracts, so I thought that the longer recovery time was a good tradeoff for having my eyes be more solid in general. YMMV.

I heard the exact same thing about the flap never fully or taking years and years and years to fully heal back on there. I actually have noticed a significant increase in my dry eye symptoms with my PRK than before. I just carry drops in my EDC in those little vials, love em, no burn at all.
