Probably: If your basic correction falls within the parameters for the prk or lasik to perform, then you can have it done. This will be analyzed by the surgeon as to whether you can expect a proper procedure.

Not recommended: Marfans syndrome involves a disorder of connective tissue and may result in abnormal healing of the cornea and unpredictable results. In addition, other ocular conditions including dislocation of the lens can occur.
