Prk After Rk? I hate not being able to see distance, and I strain now for both reading and distance

September 27, 2012
Asked By:cresscindy

I had rk about 20 years ago. I did a lot of research and felt that PRK was a good option for my declining distance vision. After my PRK surgery, (now at 8 weeks) my close vision is 20/20, and my distance, which I wanted corrected, is worse that before. The Dr. said it is still healing and to be patient. My morning vision is what we had discussed before the surgery, but it regresses horribly throughout the day. I hate not being able to see distance, and I strain now for both reading and distance
