Lasik Longevity and Driving Glasses
Lasik Longevity and Driving Glasses
- Resolving a gradual decay in night vision after fourteen years of glasses-free life post-Lasik.
The Eye Doctor Visit
- In October 2013, I noticed that my night vision was slowly starting to deteriorate.
- Having enjoyed 14 years of clear vision after my original Lasik surgery, I went in to see an eye doctor.
- The doctor confirmed that I needed a mild diopter correction (about 3/4 diopter) specifically for driving.
- The new glasses arrived just in time for me to renew my Oregon driver's license.
- Fortunately, my vision remained perfect for laptop work and watching media without needing glasses.
