Scheduled my PRK surgery. A bit nervous seeing all the horror stories. Tips or honest opinion?
Just scheduled my PRK surgery today in Jersey I am getting it done by one of the ophthalmologist for the New York Jets actually and he is well known and referred to by my ophthalmologist and my physician and my psychiatrist and they all said that I should go ahead with it. Just seeing the horror stories though can throw me off a little bit because I’ve seen a lot of bad Reddit posts so really looking for tips or honest opinions.
I went for a consultation where I was dilated, and he looked at my numbers. He said they’re good also with the tear duct test he said both of my eyes were very good at producing tears and he’s not worried about that. He said that it will cure my astigmatism and myopia. Overall, after looking at my numbers and the tests he recommended PRK he would not go with Lasik under any circumstances, but overall he said PRK would be the best.
Again, any tips on how to ease the tension or anxiety or honest opinions about those specific feelings before this specific surgery would really help
