I had LASIK on both eyes at a well-known clinic in the Irvine, CA, area. While my vision was fully corrected after surgery, over time the correction "slipped" so I went back. The doctor who checked me was rather sarcastic and denied that the correction slipped, but wrote me a prescription for glasses (within months post-surgery, not happy). As the months passed, my eyesight grew progressively worse. The clinic told me I just needed to use artificial tears more often - same theory as a dirty windshield. I finally went back in and a different doctor said my correction has slipped "IF I was telling the truth" and that an enhancement was required. I had the enhancement, the correction did not hold, and I now have horrible dry eyes and have plugs in my tear ducts and use restasis. I don't know what else to say about it except that I was never told I had a dry eye problem, nor was I warned about the possibility that the correction would not take.
