Answer

Thanks for your Question

Re-do Epi-lasik procedure is called Enhancement Epi-lasik procedure. It can be done but depends on many factors such as type of refractive surgery that you had in the first time,any complications after the first procedure, corneal thickness and refractive powers after the first refractive procedure.

Most of the time, the enhancement is a successful procedure and the desirable vision can be reached.
