  1. I understand how your son may not like contacts or goggles but he isn't allowed to have Laser Eye Surgery done until he is 21 because until then the eyes have not finished developing which would ruin the entire laser eye surgery procedure


  2. its really your decision but you should read about it, for some people it does more harm than good

  3. it's not up to you.

    no eye dr will do this surgery, they wait until he's at least 19 and his eyesight has to be stable for at least three years with basically no change.

  4. ask eye doctor but u should do it and make him pay for it!

  5. I don't think the Doctor will approve it until 21 years of age, due to the vision changes.

  6. Laser eye surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her dental implants and Lasik surgery in India by a company called Indian Health Guru Consultants. The Price for dental and Lasik surgery is very less in India. She paid 25% of the price she was quoted in America.

    Indian Health Guru Consultants is very famous in India They arrange Dental surgery, jaw surgery, Lasik eye surgery, Dental Implants etc for foreign patients in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines- about their patient stories.

    They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as dental and eye surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
