There are a few issues with Lasik:

This seems like a pretty fair list. I have Lasiked friends and coworkers. Some are pretty happy while others are not as happy as they wanted to be.

iMaGe, I expect by now that you've browsed Lasik story sites like this one. Allowing for the fact that some of the horror stories may be amplified by a certain "ambulance chaser" effect, the fact of possible complications remains. I'm pretty conservative when it comes to surgical procedures. All I'd say is that if you have any doubts about what you are getting into, there's not much of a downside to delaying. Kind of like tatoos!
