If your daughter has any uncertainties or questions at all, there nothing to stop you booking another consult with the surgeon to go through all the questions and possibilities. Ask them what’s the youngest person they did it on successfully, why does the age matter, would he be comfortable telling you no if he thought it was too much risk etc. it’s an important decision and sometimes young people (or anyone!) can feel overwhelmed by doctors and feel they can’t ask all the questions they want. That said, if she and you are feeling confident you are fully informed and the doctors are confident, then I’m excited for her to be glasses free!

Yeah we’re both fully informed. We’ve asked a lot questions. He’s really good at explaining things.
The reason they wait a little is because eyes can change up until your early 20s (I can’t remember the exact age. I did ask) but hers are stable.

Sounds like you’ve got a good surgeon, I’m sure it will go well.
