Is it okay to get LASIK surgery now if I'll be starting a software job soon and working 10-hour days in front of a computer? I'm 22 and wondering if 15-20 days of rest after the surgery is enough before I start my job

I've been wearing specs with a power of 4 and I'm considering laser surgery to get rid of them. Is it safe for my eye power? What's the recovery like and are there any side effects I should know about?

Yes, it's generally safe to undergo laser eye surgery with a prescription of 4.00, and it's considered a good candidate for LASIK. The procedure aims to correct refractive errors, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. Recovery is usually quick, with most patients regaining vision within a few days. While generally safe, there are potential side effects to be aware of.
