My belief as a physican is that you should never have any surgery that isn't medically necessary. This includes Lasik, cosmetic surgery, etc. I think all operations have risk and unless there is some significant medical benefit, it isn't worth the risk. I've got glasses. My wife and daughter both wear glasses. My ophthalmologist wears glasses. Both eye doctors that I routinely send my patients to wear glasses.
