PRK

My daughter had PRK last Saturday.  Immediately after the surgery, she was feeling great.  However, Sunday she was in a lot of pain and today also was in pain.  About how long will it take for her eyes to settle down.  The readings were 20/32 and 20/40.  She choose to have both eyes done at one time with monovision.  Thanks.

I'm having PRK tomorrow and am scared of the pain.  How long did the pain last and how bad is her pain?  Didn't they give her numbing drops and put a lens in her eye for protection?  Hope she's feeling better.
