I’m wondering basically what the question asks!
right now i have 20/200 uncorrected – 20/20 corrected vision. I was wondering if I get one of the following eye surgeries, will my vision just deteriorate to the same degree at which it is now?
Thanks

I just had Lasik in January. From my understanding your vision after surgery is not supposed to deteriorate (they permanently remove tissue to reshape your cornea to correct your vision). My boss had it 10 years ago and she still has 20/15 vision (better than 20/20). As you get older though the only thing that deteriorates is your near vision as you naturally would around the age of 45, but your distance vision should stay the same. Everyone is different but it’s definitely worth it. Try for a custom or high definition type Lasik, worth the extra bucks
LASIK eye surgery is a medical procedure that can correct your vision by altering the physical properties of your eye. Unlike traditional surgical procedures that depend upon the skills and steadiness of the surgeon’s hand, advanced LASIK eye surgery is computer controlled.
The more progressive LASIK surgery centers perform in-depth analysis of your eyes as an evaluation procedure to determine if you’re a good candidate for the LASIK procedure. The evaluation process, which is largely controlled by computer itself, maps the overall physical makeup of each eye. A traditional eye exam determines your visual abilities and then an exhaustive computer analysis determines if your eyes can be enhanced by the LASIK procedure.
In addition to determining whether or not you’re a good candidate for LASIK, the procedure also records quite a bit of data that’s specific to your eyes. If you choose to proceed with the LASIK surgery, this data is used to program the computer controlled LASIK equipment to insure that your eyes are modified exactly in the proper manner so as to provide maximum benefit.
LASIK eye surgery is relatively safe and it can free you from glasses and contacts. Before you commit to LASIK surgery, make sure that you consider all the advantages and disadvantages of having the procedure. Ask the doctor lots of questions so that you can make an informed decision about whether LASIK eye surgery is the right choice for you.
If you’re young, this procedure probably will be worth it for you. However, if you’re in your 40s as I am, you’re going to need to wear glasses no matter what you do. That’s one of the reasons I decided to not get it done. I would only be swapping one problem for another.
