1. Know Yourself - Why do you really want to have this surgery? You will live with its results forever, so don't be caught up in a fad. There are no guarantees. Many LASIK patients are still wearing glasses! 2. Know Your Surgeon - Look for an experienced, board-certified ophthalmologist. Ask direct questions regarding your surgeon's experience and complication rate.

People with severe dry eyes, certain corneal diseases, and other select eye conditions should not undergo LASIK. 5. Know What Happens - Be sure you fully understand the entire...
