LASIK eye surgery, like any other surgical procedure, has complications although advancements and new LASIK techniques have decreased the overall rate of severe complications. However some patients may still suffer some minor complications after surgery.

The popularity of lasik surgery has seen the industry flourish overnight, with clinics across the globe competing for a share of the market. Lasik eye surgery is not a cheap procedure and being a non-essential medical treatment, it is often not covered by medical insurance. For those seeking lasik surgery on a limited budget, it is important to ensure that a cheap service provider does not mean a bad lasik procedure that can lead to complications and affect your long term vision.
