A member asked:

Could laser eye treatment actually work?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Laser is used to treat many things in the eye from abnormal vessels, to lens power. It works in most cases. Check with your ophthalmologist (optometrists cannot do laser surgery) if this has been advised for you.
