Hi, I had lasik in Sept. of 2005. I have a slight astigmatism in my dominant right eye. My surgeon recommended that I wait 4 - 6 weeks before I decide if I want the AK. I discussed with him the possibility of an anti-depressant medication I am taking causing the change in my vision. He said that because anti-depressants are neurotransmitters they do interfere with vision. I just don't know what to do. I probably will remain on some form of anti-depressant for years to come. Do you recommend I go for the AK or just live with the astigmatism. It's been bugging me a lot lately especially when I work (which is all close up work).

best option is to get a thin pair of glasses for your astigmastim. If your astigmastim changes, you can change your glasses. If you get AK and it doesnt work or changes, youll need glasses anyway
