After Lasik eye surgery, can your vision still worsen?!


Question:

After Lasik eye surgery, can your vision still worsen?

If you're nearsighted, you get Lasik and you're vision goes back to 20/20, can your eyes still get worse later?


Answers:

yes, it is certainly possible. this is why all LASIK surgeons require that your Rx is "stable" (same Rx over & over again) before the surgery so that its less likely to worsen later.

if you do get "worse", an enhancement is sometimes possible.

one thing to remember about LASIK...while it is "permanent" (you will no longer be nearsighted), it does not keep you out of glasses forever. you will still need reading glasses or reading correction of some kind after your mid 40's...
