Will I need glasses or contacts after my surgery?

Almost everyone has improved uncorrected (without glasses) vision following LASIK surgery. There is no guarantee, however, of perfect vision. Most see well enough to pass a driver’s test without glasses. A high percentage have 20/20 vision or better. Many patients’ eyes change as they get older, thus making glasses an eventual necessity for certain tasks. Some patients opt for surgical enhancement of this refractive error down the road.
