Yes laser eye surgery can go wrong but the same can be said about all surgical procedures. Just about all laser eye surgery complications are easily dealt with by your surgeon and very few affect your vision. The chance of something going wrong that your surgeon can not fix is about 1 in 30,000. The risk of going blind as a result of laser eye surgery is about 1 in 5 million.
