Before the surgery I was -3.5 in both eyes. It's been 2 months and I'm still .75/.50. Now my close up and intermediate vision is terrible. Should I risk getting another surgery or just wear contacts and reading glasses? This has been the worst decision of my life.

Answer: LASIK enhancement or not? You don't mention how old you are but being overcorrected after being near-sighted is a problem. I would make sure that all of the easily correctable issues like dry eye have been or are being addressed. It is normal for some regression to occur over time - usually 3-6 months and it might be worth waiting for that depending on what your correction was before LASIK. Also, for women of child-bearing age, it is normal to regress during pregnancy, which is often a permanent change. I would advise speaking to a physician you trust about these issues to make the right decision for you.
