Prelasik tests are done to check whether your eyes are suitable for LASIK. Kindly consult an ophthalmologist who is specialized in LASIK for further evaluation.

Hello there.... I can understand your concern.... 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.....
