It is important to understand that no surgeon can guarantee perfect vision. Those with higher degrees of refractive error have more chance of needing to wear glasses for some activities such as night driving. Those in the presbyopic age group will eventually need glasses for reading and other near work.
The degree of improvement in vision varies from person to person.

The results
There have been more than 100,000 procedures performed worldwide. The U.S. clinical trial showed that 6 months after surgery, the vast majority of patients treated with the Zyoptix system achieved or reported the following:
- Extreme improvement in vision quality
- Vision better than 20/20 without glasses
- Vision without glasses better than, with glasses before surgery
- No increase in unwanted glare, halos or night driving difficulty
- High satisfaction with their results
- They would choose the procedure again

Fast recovery time
You should be able to see better in 1-2 hours after the treatment, but the most dramatic improvement will be noticed the morning following surgery. Most people return to their normal routine on the day after the treatment, but usually return to work after another day especially if you do a lot of computer work.
