I am aware of that. Just another that is done awake and looking up.

If that is saved successfully and put back on to hasten healing it is LASEK, if not, PRK.
As to the OP. Good to see some of the info coming up here regards observing afterward. I don’t have cataracts yet but with some on both sides of the family it is a bit likely sometime in my future.
