Lasik surgery may be the most effective surgery available today for Vision Correction; however it does have its disadvantages. It is important that one understands these before opting for a lasik Eye Surgery. A few of them are listed below:

a. Cost: The cost of having a surgery is quite high and does not guarantee any results. Although it is known that 99% of such surgeries have been successful, they do not guarantee a 100% vision correction. After a surgery one may still end up with a lesser vision quotient but still, it would warrant wearing glasses.

b. Insurance: Insurance companies consider lasik surgery to be elective and hence not compulsory. More than 50% of the insurance companies do not cover the costs of it since the vision can be corrected with glasses or Contact Lenses which come cheaper. They consider it to be cosmetic one.

c. Surgeries: There might have to be repeat surgeries for further vision correction may be required.

d. Post surgery care: The post surgery care is quite prolonged and would entail visits to the ophthalmologist for several weeks or months. The regimen of medicine usage is also quite prolonged.

E: Seeing things: Many people who have undergone surgery complain about seeing star-bursts or halos around objects, especially at night. Although lasik experts say that these vision issues will decrease with time, a small percentage of people who have undergone the procedure claim otherwise.
