Take it for what it's worth:

I worked for the company that developed both the LASIK procedure and the laser system used in the surgery. The company's principal specialist in the physiology and optics of the eye, the LASIK procedure and who was responsible for designing the UV laser, itself, wore eyeglasses.

A familiar story. My daughter was treated for an eye issue by one of the worlds top eye specialists in a teaching hospital. This doctor trained LASIK specialists world wide. He wears glasses too. When we asked him why, his answer was that "my glasses work just fine"...

Thanks for the insight. I've been very myoptic all of my life. It would seem a miracle to go without glasses yet, even if there is only a one percent chance of something going wrong then it's not worth the risk for me. Your story serves to further convince me that glasses suites me just fine.
