"Enhancement risk"

I had Visix Wavefront custom lasik on April 10, 2006. Both eyes were undercorrected. My dominent right eye is 20/30. My left eye is 20/70. Seing 20/30 with both. The left eye has some haylo problems. I can see and drive without glasses but it's not the results I was hoping for.

I'm scheduled for an enhancement on both eyes on october 3rd. I'm told I'll definatly need reading glasses if I proceed with the enhancement. I don't need them now but don't mind if I will. My goal is distant sight.

I, of course, have been advised of the risks.
I'm a little worried about getting a worse result or more halos, blur, etc.


1. Are the enhancement risks greater than the first sugery?
2. Would I be better off correcting only the left 20/70 eye?


Thanks for your help.
