Hello All:

I have been to two board-certified doctors in order to be evaluated for lasik/lasek/prk. My current prescription is:
R SP -4.5 CYL -3.5
L SP -3.0 CYL -3.25

cornea thickness and pupil diameter allow me to be eligible for either prk or lasek.

My questions are:
Can the VISX CustomVue Laser using Custom Wavefront Technology be used to treat my prescription?

What amount of nearsightedness and astigmatism can this laser correct?

Can any other custom wavefront procedures work for me based on my astigmatism? I believe my astigmatism is myopic.

Based on my prescription, what procedure (Lasek or PRK) will likely produce the best result?

If, because of my astigmatism, a custom wavefront procedure is not available to me, are there any other options available?

Based on my prescription, what is the likelihood of needed an additional surgery in the future?

Just to let you know, I am leaning toward the PRK procedure using custom wavefront technology, if possible.

Thank you for your help.

first,. i’m NOT an eye doc, or in really any way qualified to give a medically correct answer.

however, i’ve had friends who have experienced miracles with refractive eye surgeries.

i’d go with the wave front technique, as it is more advanced and accurate.
