You can definitely go for LASIK provided your power for both the eyes is stable and your refraction prescription is not changing frequently. The visual outcome is expected to be very good looking at your prescription for glasses. Barrage Laser which u have underwent is not going to hamper with the outcome of LASIK.

visit a good center for the LASIK
