BT-The ophthalmologist just said that I had it too young. I've heard people that get it "upgraded" after 7 years or so. I know some places have that option. Bj-The only reason I said 30 is because many people I know have had doctors tell them to wait and they're 27/28. (I know about not wanting to wait!) The LASIK surgery apparently can thin out your corneas...maybe mine were initially thinner? I'm sure there was some discussion about vision getting worse again but not what I would expect if it would happen after only 5 years...I wish they would have told me why I may want to wait. Like I said, I work at a computer all day, so maybe that accelerated it.
