Eye injury: This depends on what the visual deficit is that the injury caused.

Depends: If tge trauma induced some glasses prescription but you still have good vision with glasses, then lasik may correct the problem. If your vision is limited after a trauma even with your best glasses, then lasik will not help you.

Probably not but....: Your should consult a lasik surgeon to see if you are a candidate. Generally speaking, if your vision is not correctable with glasses, you probably will not be a lasik candidate.
