i can't answer this without examining your eyes has the appearance of the cornea after rk has a alot to do with the results. generally if your vision is stable and using glasses gives you good vision you will have great results with lasik.
if there is distortion even with glasses, the laser surgery will not correct this. it also cannot correct fluctuating vision.
good luck

I have treated many patients with LASIK after RK. They have done extremely well. To better answer your question I would need to know you prescription for glasses. It would be helpful to know how much RK surgery was done.
Good Luck,
