Lasik Eye Correction - GoFuckYourself.com

Hi

I know this topic has been posted many times but things change fast in the Lasik world.

I want to get it done, anyone got it done in NY here?

Triple 6 · 11-16-2003, 02:16 PM

i did.

WicKed NinJas · 11-16-2003, 02:20 PM

My Mom got it done..not in NY but she got it done and it worked excellent. Fucked ehr up for a few days but she sees almost perfect now

snowpimp · 11-16-2003, 02:40 PM

I just had it done last wednesday and i'm quite happy so far. It's quite wonderful to have 20/20 vision again.

I would just call a few doctor's offices to see who they recommend and go with someone with lots of experience. Ask a milliion questions and see how they respond. There are probably quite a few good doctors in NY to choose from I would imagine.

doober · 11-16-2003, 02:43 PM

isnt there a risk of going blind a few years down the road after having this type of surgery?

I would defenitely want to know if thats a long term side effect....no way id risk going blind in 10 years, just to avoid having to wear specs

besides glasses can make one look sophisticated, id hit all those bookworm bitches thats for sure

GoGoBar · 11-16-2003, 02:44 PM

I've been considering it. If you find a top notch doctor in the area let me know. Not one of those $399 per eye guys

corvette · 11-16-2003, 02:45 PM

i am interested in this as well. any information would be appreciated

Sosa · 11-16-2003, 02:46 PM

My bosses wife just had hers done. Took a few days to get used to it, but after that everything was great she said.

kristin · 11-16-2003, 02:57 PM

I would like the husband to get it done...anyone had in done in Vegas? Maybe it can be a happy ending Lasik surgery!

They been doing it in Europe for over 10 years already.

But i know what you mean. Its impossible to tell what could happened in the next 20 years or so. thats why i paid some extra $$ to get the lifetime warrenty.

But shit technology moves at superfast paced. Hell there might be a way to cure blind people in the next 20 years

Oracle Porn · 11-16-2003, 03:00 PM

Someone I know go it done and after 2 years it got back to the way it was before

thePelican · 11-16-2003, 03:02 PM

I had it done and it is the best thing in the world I could have ever done. I've worn pop bottle glasses since 2nd grade. I couldn't see in front of my face. Now I need nothing. I have 20/20 vision up from over 20/400! It's the best thing in the world. Do it without hesitation. You'll love it.

davidd · 11-16-2003, 03:05 PM

I had a long discussion with an opthamologist I am really close with. Her exact words were "I would never have it done to my eyes". Her concern is the fact that you are scorching the eyeballs and there is no long term data to suggest it is truly safe. Another issue brought up was the fact that with correct vision (glasses/contacts) everything is still sharp and crisp. Many people say that after having Lasik the crispness of their vision was never the same.

When you are dealing with your eyes, I personally would never play games.

axelcat · 11-16-2003, 03:05 PM

Trust me im in the same shoes as you im really scared to do it

i agree, i've worn glasses since i was in the third grade and would love to not need them but i wouldn't ever want to endanger my sight for cosmetics.

doober · 11-16-2003, 03:26 PM

i think you can translate anything into whatever it is you want to beleive, bottom line is that fucking around with your Eyes should be a last resort imho...
Sure techonolgy moves fast, and positive thinking towards it is great, but when your natural life as you know it is at stake I would proceed with EXTREME CAUTION....

imagine waking up one day and your blind, nothing is worth that.
I would not wish that on anyone

johnnycocker · 11-16-2003, 04:05 PM

get it done, maybe you will die

chapecito · 11-16-2003, 04:58 PM

My uncle had it done in 1992 with the best Argentinian Eye doctor.. he paid 5000 USD per eye.. he is the happiest men on earth.. he was nearly blind and now he's sight is perfect.. and he is almost 60 now.. and its been way over 10 years an no problem..

My advice.. get the best doctor you can afford.. this is proven technology.. you wont go blind.. worse case scenario is that after surgery your sight is still as bad as now.. so really nothing risky

lmao, thats funny!

its true, some opthamologists will be negative about it because their going to lose sales

slapass · 11-16-2003, 05:22 PM

I had it done and 4 people in my afmaily had it doen all 7 years ago or longer. My dad did it 12 years ago. Almost zero issues. One person did it while pregnent and had to redo it but everyone is else is still 20/20 and fine.

Bansheelinks · 11-16-2003, 05:31 PM

I hear of too many side effects...........family members have had it with excessive eye dryness and glare after

2 risky for my taste

bjs24 · 11-16-2003, 05:58 PM

I had it done about two months ago and was pretty nervous but im glad I did it. You do get dryness and everyones experience is different but I had very little discomfort afterwards and was reading without glasses five minutes after the surgery.

Its an odd feeling when you willingingly go into a room to have someone cut the top of your cornea off but its worth it. They gave me a xanax so I wasnt that concerned.

those are some bad eyes man, some people aren't suppose to get it done because theres nothing they can do for them in the long term, i'd say it was a bad call by the doctor on that one

FaberX · 11-16-2003, 07:06 PM

I've been thinking about getting it done, was about to commit to it until I started wearing Focus Night & Day contacts 8 months ago. This are disposable contacts that you wear for a month straight, no night removal, amazing clarity. I've been using acuvue weekly replacements for the last 7 years, so I was already used to contacts. This new Focus are incredible, I used to have to use rewetting drops at least twice a day with the acuvues, now, I have to set a reminder on outlook to remember to replace my contacts.
Regarding lasik, the main issue I see with it is that you cant be guaranteed 20/20 vision, and that after the procedure, you no longer can use contacts...
Besides, I find it really scary to have someone mess with my eyes, and as this is a relatively new procedure, nobody knows the long term consequences of it.

I was just going to say the same thing, just go with contacts first if you are waring glasses now. They really are not a pain in the ass anymore.

directfiesta · 11-16-2003, 08:02 PM

Got it done 2 years ago. 20/20 now.
A bit of eye dryeness the first 2-3 months, but a few drops a day makes it go away....

Best investment ever.

partytime · 11-16-2003, 08:09 PM

There is a 2% chance that your eyes will be fucked up.

<IMX> · 11-16-2003, 08:26 PM

My optimologist wears glasses and contacts.

That made up my mind.

:2cents

2% is a lot of percent for me =) I once got a natural royal flush... you never know.

dready · 11-16-2003, 11:14 PM

My eye doctor when I asked him said that the big problem is scarring... you are using a laser on your eye and it will scar... everyone scars differently and there is no way to predict your reaction. The major side effect of scarring is night glare and loss of night vision. I also work as a live theatre technician so my night vision is my bread and butter... no way I'm going to mess with it.
