Asked By:Happyjs in East Newport, ME

Hi, I had PRK laser eye surgery and it has been 6 weeks. My vision is great but my only concern is after working on the computer for few hours I get pain behind my eyes and forehead sought of like eye strain. Never experienced this pain when I had glasses. Prescription was -6.25 in both eyes. Is this common after PRK surgery that will get better in time? Please advise. Thanks
