Can lasik give me 2020 when my eyesight is very bad?

Ashley
I have like.... Minus 4 and a Minus 2 on each eye. And on both eyes I have this other problem called "cylinder" that I dunno about. Can Lasik completely restore my vision? Money is not an issue. Eye is a very important thing, and I would pay a lot for this surgery. Will a very good Lasik surgeon able to give me 20/20?

My eyes were a minus 7 and minus 11 and I was considered legally blind. I also had an astigmatism which I think might be what you are calling cylinder. Automatism is where your eye is misshapen like a football and it changes the way light enters your eye. I had one eye done with the PRK method and one with lasik. (I did them at different times for money reasons, when I did the first eye PRK was the only method that existed). I now have 20/20 vision in one eye and 20/25 in the other, and it is AMAZING! Make sure you go to a reputable surgeon, but I highly recommend it!

The most you can expect from Lasik is vision after surgery to be the same as vision before surgery with glasses (not contacts). If your vision with glasses is acceptable, then that would be a reasonable expectation if all other issues are okay.I work with a nonprofit Lasik patient advocacy. We don't do Lasik. We provide Lasik information and verify Lasik doctors' patients' results.It is possible that your vision after Lasik will be better than it is now with glasses, but that is not a reasonable expectation. It happens, but don't count on it.
