I just had a consultation with a opthemalogist yesterday at LASIKplus and am considering going there for my procedure. She recommends that I do a PRK because my cornea isn't thick enough for the LASIK. The plus is that they won't cut a flap, which I think is really frightening and the risk is a bit less, but the downside is that it takes longer to heal, around 3 months and the result isn't as immediate.

So I have two questions in mind:

1) Does any one know any thing about LASIKplus? Are they reliable? I'm still looking up on them but I'd like some first hand account about them.

2) For those who has done PRK can you give me some feed back about the procedure?

Edit: uhh, ok. I'm getting mixed information about this...
