Glasses prescription is the basis for laser vision correction. It is the glasses spectacle correction which is entered into the laser to do the procedure. Newer procedures also use wavefront data or do a wavefront optimized approach. Glasses cause some distortion of the vision both by the reflections from them as well as optically they distort the view of the world and limit peripheral vision. LASIK provides vision more like that of contact lenses.
