Posted under LASIK q&a

Years after LASIK gave me monovision, my retina detached in the distance eye and it is now blind. Can I revise the other eye?

I had Lasik in 1999 at the age of 43 (they gave me monovision). In 2014 my retina detached in the distance eye. I am now legally blind in that eye. Can I have the right (close up vision eye) changed back to regular vision?
