    There are side effects after having laser surgery, the immediate ones being sensitivity to light, and a gritty feeling that may make you want to keep your eyes closed. These of course will pass over time. You may also experience things like halos or starbursts around light sources at night, floaters, wrinkling of the flap (striae), surgery induced dry eyes or as previously mentioned on here, overcorrection or undercorrection, but these are all side effects that will mostly disappear over time, except in the case of over or undercorrection.
    You don’t say how ancient you are, so I’m going under the assumption that you’re in your early 20’s. This is a excellent time to have corrective surgery but it is vital to note that the “life span” of any corrective surgery is about 7-10 years before you initiation to notice that presriptive help is required again, and depending on the type of surgery you have, you may not be able to have it done again, so it may be a excellent thought to leave it a few more years before going forward.
    There are a couple of things to be aware of if you still want to go ahead with surgery though, persons are that your prescription has to have stayed the same for 2 years with only between a .25 and a .50 change in that time. Your cornea has to be satisfactorily thick enough to take the surgery and that you don’t have a pre-existing dry eye condition as this can be exacerbated by any corrective surgery, but your eye doctor will be able to tell you if you’re a excellent candidate.
    Excellent luck with your pronouncement

    I work in the Optical diligence and the pledge is yes. If you have a problem with dry eyes then this will make it much worse. If not, then wait, it will happen eventually. I would not get this done. If too much is removed then it is called over correction (which is terrible). You would end up still needing glasses /contacts. If not enough is removed, then you need to go back in for another surgery to get the consequences you are trying to achieve. The consequences are best when you are in your early 20’s so you can delight in it for about 20 years. When you get around 40 plus, that is when the vision starts to change again and reading glasses are needed. On top of that, the need for sunglasses are still very vital.

    I’m not really sure if your early 20s are the best age for you to have this done. For a lot of people, their prescriptions haven’t stablilized and are still changing. I know mine didn’t and it was stronger when I was in my early 30s than it was when I was in my early 20s. If I had had laser eye surgery, I certainly would have needed to return to get it re-done.
