My vision in both eyes was originally -8.
Honestly, I wanted to get back to daily life quickly, so if Smile LASIK had not been an option, I was not going to do it. At first I was turned down, but because my corneas were quite thick, I was able to go ahead.
The light glare was pretty bad at first, but it gradually got better later, and now it does not interfere much with daily life!! If people around me are considering it, I would definitely recommend it. I was worried about side effects, but there were no major problems, and my quality of life improved so much.
