My mother got it done, and it was a flawless procedure from what she told me. And it worked for her. YMMV.Originally posted by mastamindz

My wife did it and they screwed up big time. It took a year for her vision to recover. She refused to let them touch her again to fix their mess.Comment

Im fuckin scared of that shit.Comment

i had 20/400(+) vision too. 20/20-20/10 now
The procedure is a trip tho. you are awake the whole time as they slice a lid out of your cornea. You momentarily go blind during the procedure (this is normal). A lot of people freak out. The nurse held my hand through the whole thing. Hey, I'm a pussy, so what?
First time since the 5th grade I didn't have to wear corrective lenses.Comment

The only advice I could give ya is if you are in the USA DO NOT get the surgery in Canada. I don't care how much cheaper it is. If they fuck up you can't sue.Originally posted by mastamindz

Got it done almost 3 years ago. Best money I ever spent.
I got an RK a few years prior to that and my eyes went bad again.Comment
-
Got it done last May. One of the best decisions I've made. Well worth every penny. Plus, due to its corrective nature, its partially tax deductible [or so my CPA tells me].
I got mine from the Laser Eye Center of Los Angeles. Good pricing and service.Comment

My girlfriend had hers done about a year ago, and it went perfectly. The only thing she had a problem with was a slight problem seeing at night for the first month or so when driving, but that cleared up.Comment
-
i've heard some horror stories. i was thinking about getting it done. i don't wear glasses, i used to for a few years when i was a kid, but my vision corrected.
my eyes are good enough to pass eye exams, but they seem to be degrading a bit.Comment

After the surgery and recovery period she could not focus on anything near or far. The doctors said they had made an error and wanted to repeat the proceedure; she said NO way. It took about a year and her vision recovered on it's own.Originally posted by EscortBiz

If you do it I suggest you do it one eye at a time. If it works it is wonderful if not it is a disaster.Comment

I had it done in one eye
Totally freaky experience, but there was no pain to speak of
The final result - 20/20 vision, and before hand I couldnt see shit out of my eye
get it done, but choose only the best
do NOT go on the cheap - look for the most expensive mothafucka you can findComment

I've heard it is really good, aside from the fact it will worsen your night vision. If that is a factor for you, most likely lasik is not what you want.Comment
-
I considered and researched it until I found out it will Disqualify me from ever becoming a Coast Guard Pilot. At least with the bad vision I have in my left eye I might be able to split some hairs. With LASIK I'd run the risk of having my eye explode in the event of cabin depressurization therefore disqualifying me automatically.
If I don't get into flight school I plan on having it done.Comment

Really? How would the lasik surgery create that kind of risk for the eyes under cabin depressurization, other then someone who hasn't had lasik down?Comment

Is there anyway to get this done without them stretching your eye out like that, I mean thats sick

I have no idea, but this is what the CG doctor at the Cape Cod Air Station told me. I would have assumed it had to do with the decreased night vision problem, but he claimed it was due to the pressure problem. I'll find out next time I talk to him.Originally posted by MikeEP

I opened a thread related to this, but more specific to tired eyes (from the pc), tips & tricks to prevent it.
Hope you have some ideas...
I need them a lot... my eyes are severely dry and sometimes I have blurry vision (when they are really tired). My complete explanation is in this thread:
http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showth...58#post1468358
I´ve tried many things, and nothing worked...
My sincere thank you for all of you that have a good suggestion, except those ones like "stay away from the pc". That´s obvious, but I can´t do it... this is my job...---------------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing here - Neither here :p

What kind of recovery time is involved for this surgery?
I've been thinking for a while now of getting this done as well.

actually it looks like it hurts but it really doesn't
only thing is that you feel a pressure in eyeball socket when they open it up and then another pressure when they make the slice
i promise it's painless,, only thing that was really botherig me was the smell smelled like burnt ants really stank,
what really gets you scared is the build up because there was like 5 people in front of me and you can watch the procedure thru a TV
its truely amazing it only takes like 3 minutes on each eye and the doctor does over 100 a day and at around $2000 a procedure is a huge money makerComment

As a rule of thumb, one would think you should wait 10 years from when they first started using the procedure before doing something like that. At least in a situation where it's not necessary.
That's what I've elected to do. It would suck if everything was cool for like 6-7 years and then al the sudden your eyeballs deflate or some freaky shit.Comment

my mom did it - she went in twice and will never have to wear glasses again. she loves itI don't own RexMag anymore.Comment

i mean instantly as soon as the procedure was done and drove home, the eye is like that fasted healing body part
only thing is that your eyes will be sensitive to the light, kinda of like when you get your pupils dialated, so you have to wear sunglasses for the first dayComment

Money well spent for me. Had it done about 18 mos now. Went from -270/-340 to 20/20 and 20/15. I would say that my night vision with glasses was better as I still get some halos around lights. Not that bad though and you get totally used to it and dont even notice. I use to have to have that alarm clock with numbers nearly 6 inches high, just so my formerly blind ass could read the clock in the middle of the night, so for me this surgery has been liberating. I can see in the pool underwater, fall asleep watching TV and not roll over and have mashed glasses face, and I can wear sunglasses that dont have to be as thick as coke bottles.
I would recommend the surgery to anyone, but I wouldnt seek out the cheapest price.

Wasnt painless for me. The process where they press down on the eye to hold it steady so the cutting can be done precisely hurt. They pressed down so hard it burst a number of blood vessels in my eyes and i had bloodshot eyes for days afterwards. In spite of all that, I still give this procedure two thumbs up and a toe.Originally posted by playa
i promise it's painless,
My doc handed out valium prior to surgery for anxiety, so I was feeling okidoki even as they were mashing my eyes down.Comment

I had it done. Literally took like 30 seconds each eye. Wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it might be. They prescribed me drugs to take before the surgery to keep me calm (they do this with most people where I went).
Had a slight problem though. My eyes were so dry afterwards, the flap on my right eye moved and I had to have it stitched to hold it in place so it could heal right. (Doctor said out of 4,000 surgeries he did, he had to do this to 6 people. Lucky me.) My left eye was fine and I could see perfect out of it the same night. My advice is to put drops in every half hour to hour after surgery. They'll give you what you need. And go to someone that is a big name no matter what it costs. That way if there is a problem, they won't panic and will know what to do to fix it.
My vision is now better than 20/20. I don't notice anything different at night. A few weeks after you get it done your eyes will be sensitive to light and you have to make sure not to rub them or get water in them.Comment

I had it done about 5 years ago. It is incredible. Changes your life. The procedure is no big deal. It is like a glacoma test. DO IT!!!!!Comment

Has anyone tried those soft contact lenses that you can leave in for a month? It's an option I might try .. they're pretty new, at least here in Oz. Sounds kinda uncomfortable though ..
My flying instructor said that Lasik will (at least for now) disqualify you for commercial flying. Can't have the pilots eyeballs exploding at 30,000 feet now hey?
"Hey, Captain, keep an eye out for .. oops, didnt mean like that"Comment

I had the surgery about two years ago and would do it again. I went from 20/200 to 20/20.
I can see! I can see!
