I want to go for Lasik surgery to remove spectacles. My current no is -03.75. But there are few concerns
1) How many days does it take after surgery to revert to normal life like reading textbooks, newspapers, watching TV, using mobile phone etc
2) I am an IT professional, so after how many days after surgery, I can resume my work on computers
3) Will I need reading glasses after 40 years even after LASIK surgery ?

Hi..... Your results depend on your specific refractive error and other factors. People with a low grade of nearsightedness tend to have the most success with refractive surgery. People with a high degree of nearsightedness or farsightedness along with astigmatism have less predictable results.
Many people have positive results and report high satisfaction after LASIK surgery.... Consult ophthalmologist for further advice....
