For roles under the B-1 standard, LASIK surgery does not disqualify a candidate, provided they meet the specified vision criteria. Applicants need to ensure that their corrected vision after LASIK adheres to the distance and near vision requirements

My eye power is really high and I'm 28. Is LASIK surgery safe for me? I'm worried about the risks but really want to get rid of my glasses as soon as possible. Can you suggest if it's a good option for me?

However if there are fluctuations in eye power then there is a possibility of some recurrent eye power even after the LASIK surgery. Therefore it is important to ensure that the eye power is stable for the last 1-2 years before planning LASIK surgery
