AS A SIDE EFFECT OF LASIK SURGERY, I HAVE PERMANENT HALOS AND GLARE IN LOW LIGHTING SITUATIONS, DAWN, DUSK, NIGHTTIME, DARK THEATRES. I AM REPORTING THIS NOW BECAUSE I JUST READ ABOUT IT ON THE FDA WEBSITE, AND HEARD ABOUT THE FDA REVIEW OF COMPLICATIONS FROM LASIK.

EVENT ABATED AFTER USE STOPPED OR DOSE REDUCED: NO.
