I had PRK eye surgery done last year. It's very similar to LASIK, but instead of cutting a flap in the epithelium, they scrape a portion of it away, allowing it to regrow like normal without having "flap problems" in the future. This is a video of one of the eyes. Oh, and it's upside down, so as to avoid confusion. Enjoy.

  • would you reccomend this over lasik?

  • @nathanielkowal I would.

  • PRK or LASIK? This is a question...

  • @aagguimaraes This is PRK. Were it LASIK, they would not scrape away the flap. they would cut a circle in it and lift it up. I prefer PRK. It takes a little longer to heal, but once it's healed, it's great and has lower risk of messing up later.

  • So, Danley, its been quite some time now since you went through this surgery.

    How do you feel now in terms of your eye sight ?

    did you face any flaw since then ? any drawback ?

  • @khalidbaoo Very good still. No flaws. No drawbacks. I still love it and recommend it.

  • ur eyes look pretty and did they flush ur eye out with water oh and did you feel any pain at all?

  • @danley456 Any light glares, halos or reduced nightvision?

  • @ddelfao HAHAA. Hilarious.

  • @Jackiepep8 is it ok if i private message you, i have questions about this procedure and plan to have it soon

  • I had both eyes done a few years back, hands down the most painful procedure I have ever had! My vision was horrible and has been perfect ever since. No regrets but I don't recommend doing both eyes at same time.

  • I had PRK done two weeks ago and this pretty much sums it up! Quick and easy. Recovery wasn't the greatest but zero regrets.

  • Is it painful?

  • what is the thing he put in at 3:36. a contact lense?
