Be prepared to get it again after dental school. Your eye site goes down hill durring dental school with all the reading you do. Good eye site is important but you can wear glasses.
 
glasses, contacts, loupes

you don't need perfect eyesight to become a dentist.
 
GOOD eyes are important for EVERY career/job not just dentistry...lol...
 
was just curious how badly doing dental surgery hit your eyesight
and hell yeah I am excited to get Lasik.

How about things like: working on the correct tooth or even the correct patient for that matter? On the business side, don't you want to make sure that your billing is correct?
