Q. I'm farsighted and I hate glasses, I don't usually wear them because I can see perfectly without them but I have to strain my eyes.
Can anyone get lasik eye surgery and will it completely fix you? What are the complications?

A. Lasik and those type of surgeries are always getting better, and will over the years. I am also farsighted with astigmatism and know that Lasik on our eyes is more difficult than someone with myopia. To correct hyperopia the surgeon must make the curve of the lens steeper, harder to do than the surgery for myopia.
Also there is always the issues of side effects. And even after you do this correction you might still need glasses for reading when you get in your middle years. Do a lot of research before spending money on this.
As you get older, if you do nothing and don't wear glasses, you will get eyestrain and headaches and your distance vision will still need full correction. Glasses are so bad, burred vision is worse I can speak from experience with my hyperopia and the value of my glasses.

A. Many clinics that offer Lasik surgery will give you an evaluation for free to find out if you are a good candidate for the procedure. Some people cannot be helped by Lasik and need other treatments. If your glasses in any way cause you to strain your eyes, then you need a new prescription. Get an adult to take you to a Lasik clinic and get evaluated. If you are a candidate for the procedure, it can cost several thousand dollars and there can be complications and risks. Let the doctor explain them to you.
How accurate LASIK or Laser Eye Surgery is?, and what is the difference between LASIK and Laser Eye Surgery?
Q. I am planning to do a LASIK or Laser Eye Surgery, does it has any disadvantages doing it? and what is the difference between Laser and LASIK, which is better and why, I am hesitating whether to do it or not, also I don't know which one should I choose LASIK or Laser.
P.S. My vision is not so bad, it is something like 1.7 - 2 degrees deviation, am just sick wearing glasses. :)
Thanks in advance.

A. LASIK stands for LASER assisited In-Situ Keratomileusis, so there is a Laser being used on your eye during the procedure. The doctors will make a "flap" of your cornea using a microkeratome and then apply the Laser to your cornea shaping it and correcting your vision. They carefully replace the flap and you're done. It is important after LASIK that you do not rub your eyes for a couple of weeks to let the flaps heal back to normal. Your doctor will provide shields for you to wear at night so you don't rub your eyes while you're sleeping.
The only really negatives that occur regularly are:
A) Dry eyes, if you have dry eyes prior to the procedure they will be more dry after the procedure.
B) Your correction isn't totally corrected - you may need an enhancement to get your vision perfect.
C) If you have Presbyopia (the need for reading glasses) and you have both eyes corrected for distance, you will still need reading glasses, you can talk to your doctor about possible Monovision or Mini-Monovision if you're just about 40 or over 40.
Laser Eye Surgery is for people with complications in their retinas, or Glaucoma. A Laser is applied either cauterizing blood vessels in a wide range of spots and sizes for retina. It can be used to open angles in narrow angle Glaucoma. It can also be applied to patients that have cloudiness after cataract surgery to remove cloudiness.
