  • Answer:

    The thing is, you are still growing and your eyes are still changing. For laser surgery, your prescription has to have remained stable for 2 years, or close to it, and that normally doesn't happen until the mid 20's when your main growth is finished. So, even at 21, you may not be a suitable candidate yet.
