It’s almost been 10 years since I had LASEK surgery. At the time I had surgery, SMILE LASIK was just about to come out. Some people may regret it, but I have no regrets. My eyesight did get worse because I look at monitors a lot, but it’s still better than before the surgery. Of course, I wouldn’t recommend it for people who need to see fine details with their eyes.
