I had Lasik in 2005 and overall enjoyed it. It got me 20/15 vision for awhile. I did have to have my right eye re-done in May 2005 after the initial surgery in January, because that one didn’t turn out quite right.
Alas, age has caught up to me. My reading vision is now atrocious, and I have the beginnings of cataracts and a return of myopia. Fortunately, I can cheat for distance vision with lower-magnitude (computer) reading glasses, while reading books with higher-powered ones.
One thing about Lasik: I have heard that it can be more conductive to cataracts later on in life, so I’m not surprised I’m getting them. Also, your vision has to be stable — not necessarily good, just not changing, either — for you to qualify. You said one eye is getting worse. Those are just two things to think about while you’re considering this move.
Thank you.
