You should do very well.  You chance of 20/20 (if you correct to 20/20) is about 98 to 99%.

Thanks Mr Oyakawa ,

You mean to say my chances of surgery being successful is 98 to 99% ? . but people say if i get the laser surgery done at age of 35 my eyes will start watering & will have problems in future , is it true ??
do you prefer wearing contact lenses or surgery ??
which contact lenses are best suited for me ??
