Don't think it's a good idea to get one eye, tried to do the same but if there's a lot of difference / astigmatism you will get dizzy even if you still wear glasses for the uncorrected eye. Answering OP's question, I had lasik done in 2015 and while I don't regret it because of the convenience, there were complications that never solved after years: 1. My right eye had to get a correction three days after the initial operation: I left the operating room seeing blurry the first time (worse than before), thought it was normal as there's an adjustment period but next day when I got my left eye treated, vision was great as soon as I left the hospital. After the correction of the right eye, I left with perfect vision there too. I recall the flap got lifted only by a pair of tweezers and got the laser again, and according to research it never fully heals, so watch out if you are into contact sports. The problem comes now that I get migraines whenever there's a big light source (sun, bright lamp) coming only from the right. Ibuprofen or a corticosteroid drop quickly resolves it, but there's definitely more sensitivity there that's permanent, as regular checkups later proved. It does get more irritated than the left one too, more redness around the sclera and visible veins that were not there before. Interestingly, there are less of these events after Bupropion treatment, but more with Vyvanse, that antidepressant has some anti-inflammatory effect I believe. Now there's less cornea to carve in the right eye in case another is correction needed in the long term, with higher probability of complications, which probably leaves me only with the choice of PRK. Eye centers in the US are more liberal about doing more than 2 corrections using Lasik, but mind you that's treading into dangerous territory, they are obviously happy to take your money though. 2. Visual artifacts like halos and increased eye floaters: Halos are still noticeable, especially traffic lights at night. It doesn't really annoy me. Also worth mentioning: Just had a routine checkup a month ago, 6 years later my vision is still the same than after the operation. There are new techniques to cut the flap like SMILES I believe, but it's a good idea to be realistic about the outcomes. I'd have been happy with contacts, but I couldn't use the standard ones because of my astigmatism, they had to be toric contact lenses. Those are much more annoying and bigger, more irritation too, so after the trial period I decided to go for lasik instead.
