Would Lasik eye surgery benefit me?

Unique

I have 20/20 vision in my left eye, but my right is blurred. Doctor says I have a lazy eye, and it's been this way since I was a child. Can Lasik eye surgery correct this even though I've had this vision problem for decades?

Answer
Are You a Good Candidate for Lasik?
Lasik is not for everyone.

You should be at least 18 years old (21 for some lasers), since the vision of people younger than 18 usually continues to change.
You should not be pregnant or nursing as these conditions might change the measured refraction of the eye.
You should not be taking certain prescription drugs, such as Accutane or oral prednisone.
Your eyes must be healthy and your prescription stable. If you're myopic, you should postpone Lasik until your refraction has stabilized, as myopia may continue to increase in some patients until their mid- to late 20s.
You should be in good general health. Lasik may not be recommended for patients with diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, glaucoma, herpes infections of the eye, or cataracts. You should discuss this with your surgeon.
Weigh the risks and rewards. If you're happy wearing contacts or glasses, you may want to forego the surgery.
Understand your expectations from the surgery. Are they realistic?
Ask your doctor if you're a candidate for monovision â correcting one eye for distance vision and the other eye for near vision. Lasik cannot correct presbyopia so that one eye can see at both distance and near. However, Lasik can be used to correct one eye for distance and the other for near. If you can adjust to this correction, it may eliminate or reduce your need for reading glasses. In some instances, surgery on only one eye is required. If your doctor thinks you're a candidate, ask about the pros and cons.

Lasik Question, anyone help??

gooddayyd

I am considering lasik right now. could i do one eye first to see if any problems? Do you guys think that i still could have a good eyesight if another eye of my had sight problem after lasik? when i was child, my left eye was nearsight and right eye was good sight, so i could see cleary without glasses. therefore, I guess if i did one eye, even if it created problem after lasik, i still have another good eye to back up that i will not had bad sight after unsuccessful surgery. Guys, could you give any advise? i appreciate all your help.

Answer
I think the best thing is to consult with your doctor. You will not be quickly get approved to perform eye lasik surgery, there is pre-requirement test before performing eye lasik surgery.
