Do you recommend the lasek eye surgery for all?

No: Not everyone is a good candidate for laser eye surgery. Go see a cornea specialist for an evaluation.

LASEK vs LASIK : There is nobody who can get lasik who can't get lasek. However many people who can't get lasik can get lasek. This is because lasek is the safer less invasive noncutting version of lasik. Only downside is a slightly longer recovery and slightly more discomfort. Trust me i've performed 6, 000 lasiks and 14, 000 laseks.
