There are mind blowing numbers of celebrities in the industry who have undergone LASIK surgery to ditch their glasses for good.
LASIK aka Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis surgery is a popular and most effective procedure for correcting vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
So, from actors to musicians, let's delve into a list of number of Hollywood stars who opted for LASIK surgery to have a better vision:
Brad Pitt

The F1 actor underwent LASIK surgery in 2010 to correct his vision. Before the surgery, Pitt struggled with poor eyesight, often losing his glasses and having trouble recognising people.
He reportedly had multiple pairs of glasses scattered around his home and would take five pairs with him whenever he left the house.
After the amazing decision and the procedure, he underwent, the Fight Club mega star no longer needed glasses, except for fashion purposes.
Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift, who has accomplished a lot in her 35 years, decided to undergo LASIK surgery in 2019.
While sharing her experience about the surgery to Jimmy Fallon in an interview, the popstar said, “It was great. I really can see very well [now].”
Nicole Kidman

The Australian actress, who has been entertaining the world by her amazing acting skills since the 1980s, underwent LASIK surgery in 2007.
While telling about her life changing decision, Kidman told journalists at that time, “I was walking around legally blind. Now I have 20-20 vision. I can’t believe I spent so many years blurry.”

The Friends actress underwent LASIK surgery in 1999 to correct her severe nearsightedness.
Before the surgery, the Scream star had 20/400 vision, which is considered legally blind, making it a big struggle for her to read scripts, cue cards, and even recognise her co-stars without her glasses.
Kim Kardashian

The reality star might have loved the idea of the way she looked in glasses, however, once she heard that Kayne West’s song, Guilt Trip was about him wanting to tell her he hated them, she quickly scheduled her LASIK eye surgery to fix her vision.

The supermodel had to take that extra step to skip looking for her glasses in the middle of the night, so she opted for the surgery.
Ed Sheeran
