Eye laser surgery is not suitable for everyone, mostly because of its associated side effects.

However, which groups of people are more likely to suffer with problems than others?

According to the Washington Post, people who suffer with symptoms of dry eye are often considered a "poor candidate" for eye laser surgery.

It was also noted that one in five people were not pleased with the results of their eye laser surgery.

Ortho k lenses could be a great alternative for eye laser surgery seekers.

Worn at night, ortho k lenses are also ideal for people suffering symptoms of dry eye.

The overnight vision lenses help to release the eye from restrictive lenses worn in the day, hence allowing oxygen to get to the eye and possibly relieving symptoms of dry eye.

As they are worn at night, orthokeratology lenses also help users to avoid the worry of a contact lens falling out or getting damaged in the day, as Gordon Brown once found out when he lost a lens just before an important speech.
