    It’s only good for 10-15 years before they have to shave more cornea off, best to wait for the last possible moment

      I had my done over 20 years ago, and only needed glasses again this year (and that is only for a very slight correction, I can see fine without them, while 20 years ago I was basically blind without my glasses). I can’t recommend lasik enough, especially for people with very bad eyesight.

      Never knew that it wasn’t permanent. The climate change argument would’ve worked on me. Now I’m even less inclined.
