What is the downside of a laser eye surgery?
Getting a laser eye surgery, is it a good idea? what are the possible side effects/downside of this?
Answer: I'm getting it done too.
I've done tons of research, and would urge you to make sure you go to a really reliable clinic and make sure you follow all the aftercare instructions, and go to all the aftercare appointments.
If you don't use the eye drops, rub your eyes or get water in your eyes you will be risking your sight.
Your sight will not be 100% perfect after, but it should be improved. I've got myopia (no probs reading, but can't even focus on my PC screen without specs) and astigmatism (oval rather vthan round eyeballs) so I'm a fairly good bet as neither thing is too big (Myopia -4 and -3-ish; astigmatism mild).
I'm getting lasik intralase with Bosch and Laum equipment, possibly wavefront mapping too. It is expensive but I am taking NO chances. I'll add you as a friend if you want. I'm getting the op on the 14th of next month. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
