It really depends on how low is your myopia as it could means anything below two to three hundred degrees (-2.00 to -3.00). Some individuals with 25 to 75 degrees (-0.25 to -0.75) could even perform daily tasks without any form of vision correction. Ultimately, laser vision correction (LVC) is an option available for individuals who wish to be free from glasses or contact lenses.
Whether it is surface ablation (i.e PRK, transPRK, epi-LASIK, LASEK), LASIK or SMILE, each LVC technique has their own set of pros and cons.
At low levels of myopia, all 3 generations of LVC would give similar visual outcome predictability upon recovery.
Before you are pronounced suitable for any generation of laser, there are several factors need to be taken into account apart from your prescription, which includes corneal thickness, the shape of your cornea and your overall eye health. It would be best explored after a thorough eye examination and discussions with your surgeon.
