<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Thank you to everyone who shared their experiences with me. I am sending a summary per several requests. I was diagnosed in 1998 with CD and had LASIK surgery in 2000. Personally, I had no complications and LOVE it! I have one celiac friend who had LASIK and it didn't improve her vision as much as she hoped. She lives in another state now, but you might hear from her. My son had it and thought it was great. He had it at a younger age, probably in his 30's. He was not dxd celiac but is GF. He has some other autoimmune issues. I've had the Lasik procedure although it was prior to my knowing about the Celiac disease and having auto-immune issues. What does the auto-immune issues have to do with having Lasik procedure? Anyhow, I have not had any trouble and it's been several years now since I had it done. It's well worth it. Hope this helps. I was diagnosed with celiac in 2001. Had LASIK in 2004 at the age of 41. I had no problems with the surgery during or after. However, the LASIK did not work for me, and I was back in glasses a year later. Since then, my eyes have gotten progressively worse. Though I know the near-vision has to do with age, I did not expect my distance-vision to get worse after LASIK, but it has. I have no idea if this has anything to do with celiac disease, and it's never been mentioned as a possible reason. My daughter has had diabetes since she was 6 years old. She is now 35. She had lasik about 5 years ago and hasn't had a problem with it. - I had LASIK performed in 2001 and was diagnosed with other autoimmune diseases in 2003 and Celiac in 2005. I know you asked about post diagnosis but I had to tell you how happy I am that I did this. 12 years later my eyes continue to be perfect. Believe me that my "unknown at the time" AI diseases were raging through my body when I had the procedure. It's safer to do this when everything is under control. I was diagnosed in '97, had LASIK in 2002 with no problem. *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the CELIAC List* ******* To unsubscribe, email: mailto:[log in to unmask] *******
