6 months after LASIK, 20% of patients have worse or significantly worse night vision and dryness complications from LASIK. The FDA study stopped at 6 months.
I had Lasik done about 2 weeks ago, and i can say that my vision is no where NEAR what i had expected. I paid about 2000$ and my vision is not even clear enugh for me to safely drive a car. I contend with very dry eyes, milld headaches and blurred vision. For me, it seems to have been a mistake. All i want now is the comfort of my healthy eyes and my old glasses back!
You can usually find out the most information about lasik from people who've been damaged by it. You won't get much from your lasik "health professional"
Braves catcher, Brian McCann, placed on disabled list with deteriorating vision after LASIK. Professional golfer, Peter Lonard, having vision problems after two LASIK surgeries. Pro golfer, Retief Goosen, withdraws from tournament due to vision problems after laser eye surgery. Tiger Woods undergoes LASIK re-operation in 2007. Golfer, Kenny Perry suffers post-LASIK eye infection. Comedienne Kathy Griffin suffers severe complications from LASIK. Read more at lasikcomplications (.) com.
