Hi! I heard that recently doctors started to do undergo laser eye surgery on children. I know that it was not practiced on children few years ago when I was asking about it. My daughter’s vision is very poor and I think that this surgery can help her. Does anybody know something about it? Thanks!

Many doctors think that laser eye surgery should never be practiced on children because they are growing and their vision is still changing. But now there are doctors who think that this kind of surgery can be very helpful to children whose vision is so poor that it obstruct their learning and development.
