One of the benefits of laser eye surgery (including LASIK) is its permanence. Once the procedure takes place, the effects of laser eye surgery â reshaping the cornea to correct long- or short-sightedness â will usually last for life.
Like all surgical procedures, LASIK has the risk of complications and is not for everyone. Even when performed on the right patients, a complication-free laser eye surgery can result in less than 20/20 vision. A good candidate for LASIK is willing to accept reasonable risk and the possibility of rare complications.
