Question:

How long do I have to wait to get the lazer eye surgery?

I really want lazer eye surgery, but my eyes WILL NOT stop changing! They get worse and worse every year! I'm hitting my 20's, am I too old?!


Answers:

Most respectable Laser facilities require a few things. First, 18 is the legal age in most states because your eyes are still growing and changing up to that point. Second, they wait until you go at least one year without having a change in prescription. Lastly, the run multiple tests to ensure that you are a candidate for the procedure...some people have corneas that are too thin for the procedure. The actual average patient age for LASIK is 26...so you are not to old!!!
