can t wear contacts after rk prk i love the faq the comment about contact lenses not being an option for any remaining correction after rk and possibly after prk is interresting why is this does anyone know for sure whether this applies to prk as well also why is it possible to get a correction in prk with involvement of only about of the corneal depth while rk is done to a depth of up to why such a difference i thought the proceedures were simmilar with the exception of a laser being the cutting tool in prk i must not be understanding all of the differences in the faq the vision was considered less clear after the surgery than with glasses alone if this is completly attributable to the intentional slight undercorrection then it can be compensated for when necessary with glasses or contacts if they can be worn afterall it is important to know if that is not the case however and some other consequence of the surgery would often interfere with clear vision the first thing that came to my mind was a fogging of the lense which glasses couldn t help would not help daniel r field aka infospunj i m just a lowly phlebe dfield oboe calpoly edu biochemistry biotechnology i m at the phlebottom california polytechnic state u of the medical totem pole
