Sounds like PRK has higher incidences of corneal hazing and infection and not as high a success rate of vision correction as Lasik. There have also been millions and millions of Lasik procedures performed versus just a few hundred thousand PRK (even though PRK is actually the older procedure).

I'm getting estimates for PRK three times the price of what I almost paid for Lasik.

I know lots of people who got PRK and have terrific vision. Me. I won the PRK lottery (in reverse). One eye actually got worse than before the surgery. But that is pretty rare and I would still recommend this to anyone.
