Can a doctor induce a minor regression 4 months post PRK, non surgically to correct for slight over correction?

Asked By:Apricot15 in New York, NY

I had prk 4 months ago in both eyes and one eye regressed after a very small correction. My "good" eye is very slightly overcorrected and I'm hoping for it to regress so my reading vision improves. Is there a procedure to induce a regression in that eye that doesn't involve another surgery?
