If you're considering laser vision correction, you're likely weighing two popular options: LASIK and PRK. Both procedures reshape the cornea to correct refractive errors like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism — often eliminating the need for glasses or contacts.

LASIK involves creating a thin flap in the cornea, while PRK removes the outermost layer entirely. LASIK offers a faster recovery, but PRK may be better for those with thin corneas or certain lifestyle needs.

At ClearSight, we conduct a thorough consultation and corneal mapping to determine which option aligns best with your eye health, occupation, and goals. Whichever you choose, our experienced surgeons use advanced, bladeless technology for safe, precise results.
