Recovery from PRK surgery is a little longer. For the first few days while the corneal epithelium regenerates, PRK patients usually report hazy vision, some soreness, and light sensitivity. This typically clears up after the first few days, and most PRK patients are able to drive and return to work around Day 4 or 5.
LASIK patients are a very active group, so we don't hold you down very long. Air travel if fine after about two days, though sometimes the eyes can feel dry on the airplane, so we give extra tear drops to our travelers. I had PRK performed on myself in 1994. It was done on a late Thursday afternoon.
