I heard different stories!. It's very confusing!. I am still young and I want to have lasik eye surgery!. But people told me that since my nearsighted problem is not that serious, I should live with it and it will actually benefit me when I get old - don't need reading glasses!. Is that true!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Nearsightedness actually means you can see what is near you!. Your vision difficulty is seeing distance well!. Lasik is very successful for some people & not for others!. If you would like to pursue this option, do plenty of research on the doctors in your area!. Ask how long this procedure has been done by the doctor, whether or not you will need to return for any "tweaking" etc!.
I wore bifocals in my early teens!. I was able to switch to glasses for improved distance vision!. In my middle years now, I do not wear glasses at all!. It may change in the future, but that is my experience!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was nearsighted since the age of 12 but now I need also glasses to read small letters!. at the age of about 40 I had an eye surgery to correct my nearsighted view, this worked very well and I don't need any glasses to see far away, only to read!. (I'm a grandmother)!.
If you decide to have the surgery, try to find somebody who is really skilled, I was lucky the doctor was very good, some friends of mine who went to another doctor had an eye infection after surgery, but at the end everybody was happy with their "new eyes" - I have to say that at the time I did it, it was quite new to have such an operation and everybody wanted to correct their nearsightedness so I knew a lot of people who did it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There's no way to predict, but yes, sometimes the nearsightedness goes away in middle age - it did for my boyfriend!. (It didn't for me! But Lasik seems to turn out badly for up to 5% of the people who get it!. I used to want Lasik but now I'm glad I kept my eyeglasses!.) Try the new contact lenses, they're getting better all the time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
