What to know
Temporary discomfort and light sensitivity are expected early.
Recovery is slower than LASIK during week one.
Dry‑eye symptoms, halos, or glare can occur during healing.
Delayed epithelial healing or corneal haze are uncommon; your plan reduces that risk.
Infection and scarring are rare but possible with any surgery.
We’ll match technique and medications to your exam.
Is ASA the same as “old PRK”?
No. ASA is a modern, flap‑free family using updated lasers, epithelium techniques, routine bandage lenses, and evidence‑based comfort and anti‑haze strategies.
Which ASA technique is best?
Outcomes are comparable. Your cornea, dryness risk, prescription, and the laser platform guide the choice.
Does ASA hurt?
Expect a few days of discomfort while the surface heals. Today’s bandage lenses, chilled lubrication, and short‑course meds make it manageable for most.
Is the vision as good as LASIK after healing?
Yes for appropriate prescriptions. ASA trades a slower first week for a strong biomechanical profile and no flap.
