Depends: Depends on the thickness and health of the cornea. Best advice is to see a lasik surgeon. Other treatments such as prk may also be an option.

It depends: Lasik candidacy depends on prescription, corneal curvature, cornel thickness, corneal shape, eye health, general health and patient expectations. Best to see a lasik surgeon for an evaluation and discussion as to your options.
