Is your vision stable?
If you have myopia, your vision may continue to change throughout your teenage years, or even longer, requiring periodic changes in the prescription of your glasses or contact lenses. Therefore, people must be over age 18, and preferably older, before considering LASIK eye surgery.
Certain physiological conditions, diseases and medications, pregnancy, breastfeeding, autoimmune diseases, metabolic diseases, steroid medications etc. – may cause temporary fluctuations in vision. Wait until your vision has stabilized before considering LASIK eye surgery.
