I had traditional Lasik done about 5.5 years ago. My measurements were R -1.75, -1.00 X 95
and L -2.00, -1.00 X 60

1 year after surgery, my measurements were pretty much the same in both eyes
-0.25, -0.25 X 180

I definitely do not see as well now so I went for a consultation for an enhancement. My surgery is scheduled for both eyes for next week. I am getting a little nervous and am having 2nd thoughts about getting both eyes done. I was thinking about getting only my left eye done (it is the weaker eye). I am scheduled for Regular Lasik for both eyes, but think that I would do better with Custom on my Left (due to halos and glare at night) and Traditional on my Right (halos not as bad). Do they ever do different types of surgery on each eye? I need to call my doctor, but would like to hear opinions about whether I should do an enhancement on one eye or both eyes and what type would be the best?

Here are my measurements now:
R-1.25, -0.25 180
L-1.25, -0.75 180
I can see much better out of my right than my left eye.
R 20/30-40
L 20/60

Thanks for your help!!!
