I Am Doing A Lasik Surgery For My Eyes 2moro. Is There Anything I Should Know Or Do Befor Going ?
In the morning is best. It gives your cornea time to begin healing before you sleep (REM can cause problems). There is one unnerving part: The cutting of the corneal flap. It doesn’t hurt (thanks to the anesthetic drops) but when the doc does it he will press your eye so hard that everything goes pitch dark. Other than that its a “cake walk.” Important: the doc will tell you to keep your vision directed at the red dot. Once the cornea is off, that red dot looks like a thousand red dots in a snowflake pattern. Lock your attention on the center of that pattern! I looked to the edge for a split second and ended up with a ghost image around light sources at night. I have 20/10 acuity but at night the image is a nuisance. Post-op, keep your eyes wet. They’ll tell you that. They’ll give you some sleep goggles. Mine slipped off easily. Tying a t-shirt around my eyes on top of the goggles did the trick. Some people stand up seeing 20/20 and some take a couple of days to get the full benefit. Enjoy your “new” eyes.

Lasik… Had It About 6 Years Ago, But My Eyes Are Failing Again. Can I Have Lasik A 2nd Time?
Lasik eye surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her dental implants and Lasik surgery in India by a company called Indian Health Guru Consultants. The Price for dental and Lasik surgery is very less in India. She paid 25% of the price she was quoted in America.
Indian Health Guru Consultants is very famous in India They arrange Dental surgery, jaw surgery, Lasik eye surgery, Dental Implants etc for foreign patients in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines- about their patient stories.
They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as dental and eye surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.http://www.indianhealthguru.com
Hope this helps.

Does Anyone Know Of A Way To Lighten Dark Circles Around Your Eyes?
It doesn’t matter how much sleep I get, I always have these dark circles around my eyes. I have been told that it is because I wear glasses—have for most of my life. I won’t even wear contacts or consider Lasik surgery because at least my glasses help to hide it to some degree. Any ideas?
Has Anyone Had Lasik Surgery To Their Eyes? Results, Good Or Bad?

I Am Getting Lasik Surgery In My Eyes, How Long Before Do I Have To Stop Wearing Contacts?
it depends on your current Rx and the type of contact that you use. I had to leave mine out for 10 days, my wife had a stigmatism and had to leave them out for 2 weeks. Two other close friends only had to leave them out for 4-5 day. We all had the prodcedure done by the same doctor. So I guess you answer is that there is no correct answer until the doc tell you specific to your situation.
Congrats on the surgery. I had my 1yr check up today and my vision is better then perfect (20/15)!!!!
WOW that person above me is CLUELESS!!
