Is Wavefront Lasik the best laser eye surgery to date?
Nixon asked:
I am scheduled for my Wavefront Lasik surgery next week. I was told this is the most recent, top of the line procedure available to date. I want to achieve better than perfect vision (20/10 or 20/15); and although it is not guaranteed, Wavefront Lasik has a higher percentage of success compared to other procedures to achieve, what I like to call, “high definition vision”. Does anyone have any testimonials or web site links to verify if this is statistically true?

Wavefront lasik will in most cases give better results compared to surgery without using wavefront.
However as you say yourself results are not guaranteed.
Of course with all laser eye surgery there is of course no permanent cure and at some stage later in life spectacles will again need to be worn.
Please read up as much as you can before considering surgery.
Good Luck
