I usually prepare my patients for better vision toward the end of 3 months after PRK with still some fine-tuning of the vision happening between the 3-6 month mark.
Typically vision should be clear enough to drive after 1 week of surgery. It may take up to 3 months for objects to be focused. However, some patients may experience glare, halos, and dryness until 6 months, which may affect quality of vision.
The vision recovery after PRK is usually pretty good after one to two months, but I like to tell my patients to expect a 3 month visual recovery. In some cases it can take longer to get rid of halos and double vision.
