I had LASIK 15 years ago as a present from my parents when I turned 21. My prescription back then was ~-4.25/-4.75.
Despite using the antibiotics and steroids provided I caught an MRSA infection in both eyes that ruined my corneas, and i ended up having to have bilateral cornea transplants after spending six months blind (could tell if it was nighttime or daytime).
Have you seen this happen? How often would you say this kind of infection occurs?
Edit: My prescription now is -8.25/-9.25, CYL -5.5/-3, and Axis 61/26
