i just did my lasik 1 week ago with intralase.. when i went for post op check up today…doc says my cornea is a swollen and my vision is fluctuating (i.e : sometimes clear, sometimes unclear).
doc says it’s a personal reaction..just wondering if there’s anything i have done after op to caused it? or can anything be done on my part to reduce the swelling now??
has anybody experienced that before? how long after lasik will it take for eyesight to stabalise??
have only done 1 eye..and i’m worried about the second eye now =(

I can see fine objects that are far away but trying to read is very blurry, I recently got reading glasses and my eyesight for reading has actually gotten worse. I was considering surgery but don’t know of anyone have the kind for my condition. Has anyone here had the surgery? What are the costs and your results….

i am interested in lasik surgery and i keep reading about horrible outcomes. even in people who are satisfied with the results, say they see halos and starbursts but they are still happy. is there anyone who has had this done that are completely satisfied with no complications? i’m thinking about canceling my consultation and being thankful that glasses exist.

also if u live in nyc can u recomend a doctor

The surveys determining patient satisfaction with LASIK have found most patients satisfied, with satisfaction range being 92–98 percent?

Total cost of surgery? Is it better to go to polyclinic first to get recommendation so that we can get subsidise?

Looking for Laser Eye Surgery in Birmingham. Does anyone recommend any laser eye companies that are safe and affordable?
I heard of Optical Express – does anyone know what their website URL is and their phone number? Do they do lasik eye in Birmingham?
I am tired of wearing contact lenses and I was always sceptical about laser eye surgery – but I think I am ready now to give it a try.
Thank You,

I’m considering LASIK but can’t decide between traditional LASIK with the metal blade and IntraLase with no metal blade. IntraLase costs twice as much as standard LASIK.
I’ve had consultations with doctors who do both. Each say it’s safe so I’m still confused.
Which type did you have. Are you happy with the results? Any side effects?

A little information:
Right Eye -5.75
Sphere -0.50
Axis x148
Left Eye -6.25
PD(mm) 53
I have tried to google information to see if I would be a candidate for lasik surgery and what the chances were of improving my vision so I can at least read my alarm clock when I get out of bed in the morning. I know there is a possibility of needing glasses after lasik and I am fine with that, glasses I don’t mind it the fact that like I said I cant even attempt to read my alarm clock in the mornings. That being said, I am currently living overseas and do not have theluxuryy of making an appointment to talk with an optician about Lasik (well I could but my Italian isn’t good enough yet). I am going to have to fly back to the states if I decide to have the surgery and I want to know if I am a good candidate before I pay for that flight. I have researched several websites and the terminology baffles me. Advice anyone?
Also, it is important to know that I do have large pupils. I do not know what effect this has on the surgery but I have ead that it could cause problems with noght vision and halos.
Thanks for your time!

I’m thinking about getting Lasik done. I know the costs are around $1200-2500 but i’m wondering is it worth getting? If it helps with answering I’m near sided.
1.)What side effects do you have after wards? including long term.
2.)Does it hurt?
3.)Is it worth it?
Please if you have had Lasik done I would really appreciate your answers
