I'm just wondering does the lasik outcome affected by the eye power? Or the expertise of the ophthalmologist + the technology? Don't want to wear glasses but also worry the risk of getting worse eyesight after lasik.

I did my femto-lasik recently, thanks jialat smile.gif
So far so good, my left eye was around - 8.0 and my right was around - 11.0.
Now my both of them are about 0 with some left over astigmatism( I had high astig previously around 3-3.5 iirc for both eyes).
Overall, I'm satisfied with the outcome. The only complication I have faced so far is dry eyes which is common. I would recommend you to do a full eye examination before you make a decision. I was told that if you possess a high power, your eye power "could" change after lasik

Glad to hear that you are satisfied! I did have my assessment done earlier, was been told I am a 'suitable' candidate but I'm still struggling to make a decision due to the risks etc

Btw, I've read somewhere in this forum earlier the dry eyes has to be min 10 sec. There's this tear film reading in my assessment with I searched online is related to dry eye. The tear film reading shows 0.1 instead of seconds, anyone could tell me what does 0.1 mean? Tq!
