    First of all, I'm trying to figure out what you are asking.

    Yes, you can get laser eye surgery at 19. Most places the age is 18.

    When you say 600 degree are you saying that your prescription is a -6.00 or a +6.00? If so, is there an astigmatism? How much?

    Also, what is making you consider laser eye surgery?

    I actually had LASIK done 4 years ago though a very reputable doctor and clinic. One of the conditions of the procedure I know is that your vision has to be stable, and not changing. Because of that I waited till I was 20 to get it done. I also had very bad vision, and an astigmatism that was corrected to almost 20/20. So people can get good results. But it is eye surgery, and can have complications. Make sure your informed.

    Here is their website, its very helpful.
    TLC Laser Eye Centers - providers of LASIK, Custom LASIK, Bladeless Lasik, IntraLase, PRK, CK, Laser Vision Correction procedures, Laser Eye Surgery, offering numerous LASIK eye surgery Centers and Lasik Surgeons across North America.
