Absolutely worth it. Had surgery 12 years ago, approaching 40 and my eyes are still 20/20. Have spent the last decade staring at screens 8 hours a day 5 days a week. Highly recommend PRK over LASIK. My desire was to be able to participate in adventure sports or take a punch without concern for the LASIK flap.
(Procedure was done in Chicago by UICs Optomology Dept head at the Millennium Park Eye Center; confirm your surgeon’s experience and skill level, and ask what their complication rate is)
