lasik laser eye surgery gone wrong

What would you say is the most you would need to pay in order to get 100% no-fail LASER/lasik surgery?

I know generally nowadays that LASER/LASIK eye surgery is for the most part safe and effective, but just worried as there oculd always be that error of it potentially going wrong. What would you say then is the most one would have to pay to get guaranteed safe LASER/LASIK eye surgery?

Unfortunately, even money won’t buy a 100% guarantee. Laser Surgery, like all other surgeries, has an element of risk. In the end, the people who perform the surgeries are just human, and they may make mistakes just like everybody else. Like you said – laser surgery has become a very safe practice, and generally, errors don’t happen. Despite this, I understand your concern, and I think it is so commendable that preserving the previous gift of sight (rather than cost), is your main focus.

If you are particularly concerned about surgery, you could try non-surgical options such as Orthokeratology to reduce your myopia. Otherwise, the very best advice I can give you is to choose a reputable place to get your laser surgery done. Ask about how many (successful) laser surgeries have been performed by the clinic/doctor, and be sure you are a very good candidate before going in. Be wary of deals (e.g. $490/eye) – if the offer is too good to be true, it probably is. Sight is one of our most precious gifts, so choose a place which is most likely to preserve it and enhance it.
