Lasik is very safe and has an excellent record, however up to 6% of patients may require an enhancement procedure within 10 years of the original surgery.
Some minor changes in spectacle refraction does occur over time, occurring most significantly in patients who were of a younger age at the time of surgery, higher degrees of myopia, and of the female sex.
For the majority of patients, the spectacle refraction is minor and do not require any visual aids or surgery.
For the minority of patients, they mostly choose to wear spectacle / contact lens correction for specific activities including driving at night or choose to undergo enhancement surgery.
Most importantly you should discuss the post-Lasik follow-up / enhancement policies of the Lasik surgeon performing your surgery!
