Femto is a FDA approved procedure. Literature support both conventional and Femto lasik surgery equally. If your number is above -6 than you are on yellow zone. Refractive surgery is a cosmetic surgery ( with some exceptions). If your vision is ok with glasses than glasses are the safest mode of treatment. Regards

Femolasik is safe procedure, approved by FDA, patient selections is important and preoperative assessment is very much necessary,operation complications risk is very low.
Femtolasik is giving better results if doing second and third decades of life, because after age of 40 years a normal individual needs reading glasses, so if you doing laser near age of 40,patient need reading glasses so patient not enjoy his life without glasses, that why eye doctors which are usually near or above 40 years of age not do laser themselves.
