Question

My 14-year-old niece is scheduled for LASIK surgery to fix her really bad eyesight, and we're all a bit nervous about how it'll go. What are the actual success rates for LASIK recovery in someone her age? How long does it usually take to fully recover, and are there any major risks we should watch out for after the surgery?
