Curious to know if there are any personal experiences that you’d like to share–either good or bad. I have read info about it, but I am a little scared. After wearing glasses most of my life, not sure if it is worth it. Can you help?
Has Anyone Here Gotten Their Eyesight Corrected With The Lasik Surgery?
January 31, 2010 By 5 Comments
I wore glasses or contacts for over 30 years to correct nearsightedness with a slight astigmatism. I knew a couple of people who underwent radial keratotomy and I knew I wanted to wait for LASIK to get cheaper b4 I did anything. I waited until 1999 and read all I could about it. I had it in May ‘99 and I got near perfect results. I am slightly farsighted in 1 eye and slightly nearsighted in the other, so even though I’m 50, I don’t need glasses to read.
By all means, read everything you can and, with Yahoo answers, you should be able to get enough personal responses to make an informed decision.
Bon chance!
i know someone who had it done 3 weeks ago, its amazing. He went twice for a consultancy, had measurements etc taken. went on the fri morning to have it done, was back out on the street within the hour, the actual procedure itself takes minutes. drops in the eyes once you come out, vision a little blurry, back the next day for a check up, his vision was amazing that day and settled down very quickly. Its well worth looking into, he no longer needs glasses or contacts
No, I haven’t.
Actually I didn’t do it because I’m still 15..I can’t do it till I’m 18…But my Mom did it..It’s amazing..My Mom used to wear glasses since she was in college..When she had the operation,she never wears it again..It’s a very complex operation but in most cases it’s successful..So don’t worry & good luck..I want to do it too but I’m so scared..Anyway,I still have three years to think about it…
no i have never had lasik surgery
