is PRK suitable for high myopia?

[ahumblestudent]

I am 23 years old and have stable -7.0 prescription on both eyes, my corneal thicknesses are 574 and 578 microns, which is above average, my left pupil is 6.4X6.6mm and my right pupil is 7.9X8.1 mm. The doctor recommends LASIK for me but I don't want to deal with flap-related injuries in the future so I am also considering PRK, but I heard rumors that PRK cant be done on vision worse than -5.

1. Am I still eligible for PRK?
2. What kind of result can I expect?
3. Does PRK cause more halos/glares/starbusts/poor night vision than Lasik?

Thanks!

Can I ask how did this turn out both in the short term and long?  Thank you.
