Lasik safe ?

2018-08-30 14:44:40
Is lasik safe to get as of 2018? My eye doctor told me that some people who got lasik few years ago are having problems now but she says today we have bladeless lasik . Which is a lot less riskier. I am 21 years old currently and thinking of getting lasik this December . What are the possible risks ? I don't want to get lasik and then suffer it's consequences years from now
