to correct the distance vision I'm not talking about degenerative conditions such as macular degeneration.
Answer:
Do you mean upper age limit?
I understand lazer surgery is not done for the over 70's
Answer:
It isn't normally done until the vision has been stable for close to 2 years, which usually isn't until the early 20's
Getting it done too soon only means that your vision might change again maybe a few months later and it will have all been for nothing.
Answer:
Here in the US, you have to be at least 18 years or older. Your prescription needs to be stable for at least 2-3 yrs. It is usually best to wait til mid 20's. Usually your eyes aren't done changing until then but it is completely up to you as a patient and suggestions from your physician. Hope this helps!
