1- If your seller is from Chinese city offering deep discounts on that coveted Armani ceramic watch, run for the hills. It is a fake. Contrary to the popular belief , Asians don't have access to the brands at discounted prices as the Americans do. As  a matter of fact, the most money is made in Asia by the luxury brands because the market is not as competitive as in the USA.
2- If you are offered a price less than 60% of the original price and no warranty is offered, then just look for another place. Chances are these are fakes.
3- Does the watch come with certificate of authenticity or certificado di autenticidad, if it does not , then it might be a fake. Because all Armani original watches come with it.
4-The seller insists on Western union or bank transfer, you are in front of scammer heed for the door quick!!
5- The site has the same prices for all its watches , sometimes when browsing , you will see that all of them asking $80.00 for every style. well hello!! Armani has different price points ,ranging from $125 up over $750.00.
6- A genuine seller will offer the watch with the original box, warranty and certificate of authenticity , and will accept credit cards or paypal payments. Also i will see if the site takes it own pictures or just copy them the internet. Always a good sign when the photos are taken inhouse; it shows that 1st of all they have in stock and secondly , they are in this business for the long haul .
7- The site needs to be registered in USA or Europe and you have to be able to check the registration and i will call the phone listed on site. You will be amazed how a simple call can spot a real seller from a fly by operation.

Recovery of Corneal Subbasal Nerve Density After PRK and LASIK

Recovery of Corneal Subbasal Nerve Density After PRK and LASIK

Severing the corneal nerves during refractive surgery may have short- or long-term effects on the health of the cornea. Erie et al. measured and compared the return of corneal innervation up to five years after PRK and LASIK in a prospective, nonrandomized clinical trial.

Eighteen eyes of 12 patients received PRK to correct a mean refractive error of –3.73, and 16 eyes of 11 patients received LASIK to correct a mean refractive error of –6.56. Corneas were examined by confocal microscopy before and at one, two, three and five years after the procedures. Subbasal nerve fiber bundles were measured to determine density (visible length of nerve/frame area) and were expressed as micrometers
per square millimeter.

After PRK, mean subbasal nerve density was reduced by 59 percent at one year when compared with preoperative density. By two years, subbasal nerve density was not significantly different from density before PRK and remained unchanged to five years. After LASIK, subbasal nerve density was reduced by 51 percent, 35 percent and 34 percent at one, two and three years, respectively. By five years, subbasal nerves had returned to densities that were not significantly different from densities before LASIK.

Corneal subbasal nerve density does not seem to recover to near-preoperative densities until five years after LASIK, as compared with two years after PRK.
