If you have an usually warped cornea, then PRK will probably be suggested by your doctor. It's more expensive, but it's also more accurate. Lasik is also not advised if you're somewhat of an athlete. Trauma in the eye may tear the flap open. eek! Of course that could happen anywhere, but playing sports just raises the probability of getting an elbow or basket ball in the face.
