In LASIK, a microkeratome cutting tool or a special laser is used, in the LASEK procedure, a tool called a trephine is used. The trephine of Lasek is instead of making a deep flap to allow access to the stroma, a much thinner flap is used, only removing the thin outer covering of the eye. It must be noted that there are serious questions as to the impact this alcohol has as it permeates various structures in the eye. Visual recovery is faster in LASIK than LASEK, and having the LASEK procedure is also generally more painful than a LASIK procedure and the discomfort may last for a week or so. In normal, since LASIK has a more comfortable and shorter recovery period, over 85% of laser eye surgeries are carried out using the LASIK technique.
