Has anyone had lasik surgery for over 5 years? how is the vision after 5 years still?Danica
It's a couple $k's, I want to know how long will this surgery be good for..or should I just stick to the glasses? Are you still looking good and the same after 5 years?

The results of Lasik are permanent and the chance of you needing an enhancement several years following the procedure would be due to natural regression with age, etc. Most touchups dones within the first year are do to over or under correction of your rx (usually these procedures are covered in any basic package) Ten years down the road you may need a touchup or you may never need an enhancement? It is dependent on a lot of different factors. There are always more risks with additional surgery since you will be lifting additional tissue. Make sure your rx is stable and you go to a reputable surgeon, ask what the doctor's enhancement rate is. If you have a hefty rx your chances are increased for needing a second procedure in order to reach functional vision without the need for corrective lenses. Good Luck!

Lasik eye surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her dental implants and Lasik surgery in India by a company called Indian Health Guru Consultants. The Price for dental and Lasik surgery is very less in India. She paid 25% of the price she was quoted in America.Indian Health Guru Consultants is very famous in India They arrange Dental surgery, jaw surgery, Lasik eye surgery, Dental Implants etc for foreign patients in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines- about their patient stories.They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as dental and eye surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star. http://www.indianhealthguru.com
