Lasik Surgery for a teenager?
My son is 15 years old and his vision is bad, according to the Optometrist its getting worse by the year. He needs to wear his glasses 24/7. I had consider the lasik surgery for him but not sure how old you have to be in order to have lasik surgery or if his vision would get better. Any suggestions?
Answer
i am 18 yrs old and i wanted to get it done too. however after consultation from various doctors v have found out it is bet to wait till the age of 21 (u know when the body stops growing and soo does the power in your vision.) this would be better cause it would not be a good idea to get it done more than once (and as far as i know u can get it done only once cause they remove some thing to stop the nuber from increasing). so um.... yeah the best thing to do right now is to wait. also in a few years this lasik surgery technique would evolve to be absolutely flawwless and 100 % excellent results.
