Are there complications with CK, PRK and Lasik?
Although complications are fairly rare, they do exist and should be completely understood by the patient prior to undergoing any type of refractive procedure. Be certain that your refractive consultation includes a thorough discussion of the pros and cons of surgery, as well as potential complications inherent with each particular refractive surgery. Dr. Mohammadi carefully explains potential complications with each patient, and is onservative in his selection of the ideal refrative candidate based on their degree of refractive error, as well as their job. (ie., those who do close-up work and are over 40, may not be the best candidate for myopic refractive surgery, as they will most likely need reading glasses immediately following surgery.
