If you have an evaluation and you are a good candidate. Once you’re stable with your refraction for at least a year, you can have surgery. Make sure you don’t have unusual astigmatism and thick enough corneas to have the procedure.
At 22, it is fine to have Laser, however, you need to be screened to see if you are a good candidate.

Lasik is FDA approved for those above 18. Your glasses prescription must be stable.

When your prescription is stable for at least one year. SO
The recommended age for LASIK is 21. Also, your glasses prescription has to have been stable for at least 1 year.
As soon as your eye refraction is stable like no increase over one year
