Not necessarily. LASIK produces good results for almost every degree of myopia or 11 nearsightedness”. And LASIK can also treat mild to moderate cases of hyperopia or “farsightedness”. But vision problems due to the aging of the lens of the eye (presbyopia) and extreme cases of farsightedness may best be corrected by other methods which Dr. Rahmani may discuss with you.
