it depends a lot on the doctor you use………
My mom got it when she was blind without glasses,
and she got it like, 10 years ago and she still has perfect vision.
Nothing went wrong at all,
she even said it wasn’t painful.
It’s safe and effective for the large majority of people.
Which leaves the others: stuck with anything from niggling but persistent side effects to seriously impaired vision.
See the FDA site, and a sample consent form , below.
don’t worry, laser treatment is very safe.
The technology is almost 100% reliable. Just make sure you find a qualified optometrist/surgeon
I had lasik done 9 years ago, and I went from 20/250 vision and very bad astigmatism to 20/15 vision and no astigmatism. No side effects, and nothing’s changed in the past decade. The surgery itself is so cool you’re gonna wish you had done it years ago.
Regardless no surgery is risk free or even safe thats why you need to be able to trust your surgeon. Get as much knowledge as you can, find a knowledgeable surgeon and make sure you can trust him. laser surgery is usually extremely effective. Thats best I can give you. Good luck
