What eye surgery is recommended for a far-sighted?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
LASIK or PRK: If the vision is stable, both lasik and prk can work well for farsightedness (hyperopia). Even though our fda approves the procedure from 1 to 6 diopters, it seems to work the best in the 1 to 4 diopter range.
