LASEK and Epi-LASEK are both safer than old-fashioned LASIK, as they are non-cutting, and do not cut any flap at all in your eyes! Because 90% of all LASIK complications are flap-related in some way (problem cutting the flap, replacing the flap, getting hit in the eye and having the flap dislocated, etc.), this means 100% of all flap-related complications will be eliminated by not cutting a flap!
But don’t take our word for it–this has been proven in many published studies!
