I had LASIK on both eyes for nearsightedness. I have never had any problems
with getting a 3rd class medical because of it. There is a little more
paperwork your AME will want, such as records from the opthamologist. I
think there was also a form for the opthamologist to fill out, but it's been
about 5 years. This is only a one-time thing. Once I got my first medical
after the LASIK, repeat medicals just involved eye testing using the charts.

Is LASIK approved procedure for third class medical?
Sooner or later, I might have LASIK (wavefront) done to my left eye for
correcting vision problems. But if it causes problem with maintaining a
third class medical, I will just stick with my glasses.
Any information is greatly appreciated!
