Answer

Thanks or your Question

 

 

Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) with Mitomycin application is better than Lasik to correct myopia and astigmatism with much less complications.

Long term wearing contact lenses can make the eye very sensitive to these lenses. Using preservative free artificial tears can help to minimize this sensitivity.
