"Over the years I've had the misfortune of examining thousands of patients who have lost quality vision and suffered severe depression as a result of LASIK surgery. Two of these patients were so depressed by their post-surgical vision loss that they attempted suicide. In fact, there are several documented cases of post-LASIK suicides." The known risks and complications of LASIK surgery includes: Severely distorted corneas, causing loss of best corrected visual acuity, vision distortions known as higher order aberrations, under correction and over correction of the patient's vision error, nighttime vision disorders including halos, starbursts, glare, ghosting and double vision.

Guide to understanding dry eyes after LASIK, the most common LASIK complication: rate of dry eyes after LASIK, photos of corneas with severe post-LASIK dry eye, videos of patients discussing the quality of life impact of dry eyes after LASIK.

The photo below shows a cornea of a patient who had RK (radial keratotomy) fifteen years ago followed by LASIK nine years ago. The RK incisions are obvious in the picture. The red arrow points to the LASIK flap edge. Like RK incisions, the LASIK flap never heals completely. The yellow arrow points to staining of corneal epithelial cells which are no longer viable due to post-LASIK dry eye disease.

Corneal ectasia is a worst-case scenario. It’s not common but it is alarming. As the outermost layer, the cornea helps the eye hold its spherical shape. When the cornea is weakened, the eyeball can begin to steepen and bulge as seen in these photos taken by optometrist Dr. Edward Boshnick of Florida, who specializes in treating post-LASIK patients who develop problems. This pointy shape interferes with good vision, sometimes to the point of legal blindness.
