i fear complications or side effects of lasik. what are typical problems?
Most LASIK side effects are rare and not serious. Like any surgery, there are inherent risks, but LASIK is generally regarded as one or the safest surgeries available.
Typical side effects include temporarily reduced night vision and dry eye.
Serious but rare side effects include infection, distorted vision, and complications with the flap. Listing all the possible side effects of any procedure is almost impossible, so you should address any specific concerns with your doctor.
please suggest resources that can help me find the best lasik doctor!
Trusted lasiksurgeons.com is a new website that was developed to help the public separate who claims to be the best and who is actually regarded in the industry as the a leader. The inclusion criteria includes the number of FDA investigative studies, faculty appointments (medical school), research, professional publications and presentations to their peers. If you are lucky enough to have one of these doctors in your area, I would consider a visit.
Often you can look up your surgeon on Google. Truly renowned surgeons are almost always active in the scientific community with publications and research.
