How long after PRK surgery does typical regression occur?

Question

I had a very small correction in both eyes and one eye started to regress about month 3. Is it possible the other eye could still regress? It's been over 4 months post op.

Martin L. Fox, MD · Answer

Most changes in vision during the first six months post laser vision correction are part of the final corneal response to the laser application. Such responses when leaving a patient undercorrected are best treated with a prk refinement procedure after stabilization at 4-6 months. Individuals presenting years after surgery might also notice chabges in vision. These are due to changes in anatomy of the eye relating to the aging process and generally not associated with the original laser treatment.
