LASIK can correct nearsightedness and farsightedness, but a lot more of the former. Usually up to 10 units of nearsightedness and up to 4 units of farsightedness. Also, do you require a bifocal so you can see up close? This changes things also. I am a LASIK surgeon as well as a LASIK patient and WLS post-op. Please feel free to e-mial me if you need anything. Good luck,,....Manuel
