I had lasik quite a while back (11 years) and don't recall anyone every saying not to take that test. I did a quick search of some of the medical sites and the only thing I could find was a reference that taking the test right after the surgery doesn't give good results.Thanks everyone for your responses to this thread. I have an additional question for those who have considered or gone through Lasik.
Do any of you have a family history of glaucoma? As I understand it, after Lasik the standard test for glaucoma can not be used.
Anyone out there have any info on what is done instead?
Just a consideration, and I will definitely bring it up with my optometrist if I pursue Lasik.
Maybe Tooth or Robin has more info on this but for me lasik was one of the best things I ever did.
