This is no different whether you have had Lasik eye surgery or not and playing a lot of computer games would not be a reason not to have Lasik.

And if so, playing those games, does it really make your eyesight worse even after Lasik? I believe he means Computer Games, XBOX, Playstation, ect.

Unfortunately sometimes people's eyes do tend to regress more than others. The fact that you had laser eye surgery 12 years ago means there was a higher risk of regression than there is now. A lot of clinics nowadays give a lifetime guarantee but not many were doing that when you had your eyes lasered. I would be interested to hear how you get on if you do decide to have the procedure repeated. Hi Chris

My eyes were both -6.25, after laser surgery 0.0 and -0.5, great, except it didnt last very long at all, both my eyes started to revert and within 3 years were at -0.5,-1.5 after 12 years now they are at -2.0 and -3.0 and still reverting steadily, and no they will not redo them for free, they even charged me £50 to go for a check up !
