That's not what I was told, and that is what basically everything I'm reading is saying
Everywhere I read says near vision issues will either possibly or will be more pronounced after full LASIK if your'e over 40-45.
its great when you are young, but not for the old
i had it in both eyes and now im wearing glasses again, just not the super thick ones.
the issue is, when you reach 50 yrs old, your body changes and your eyes gets worse.
if you got lasik at 30 you can go glasses free for 20 years, if you are 40 you can expect 10 years before you may need glasses.
not every person after 50 yrs old is certain to need glases, most just need reading glasses, but odds are high that if you needed glasses before, then you will again
one thing to remember is, you can only get it done once, if it doesnt work, there is no guaranty glasses can restore your vision since it changes the shape of your eye when its reshapes the lens with a laser burning it.
as much as i loved having no glasses for 14 years, if i had a chance to go back to that time, i would not do the surgery again.
