For patients with corneal scars, is it safe to do LASIK or PRK?

Doctor's Answer

This is highly dependent on the density of the scar, and the location of the scar tissue.

With that said, you should consult your attending Lasik surgeon to discuss your options. Faint and peripherally located scars are extremely amenable to surgery. In fact, generally have better visual outcomes.
