Good to hear, I was thinking of getting this done myself.

I don't believe that and it doesnt matter to me because my $2300 included an unsurance policy so that if my vision ever degrades I can have teh surgery as many times as need in the future for free. Best $2300 ever.

PK - How much was yours with the wave front.
Last time I checked it was 2K an eye here.

Zebra same with you, since you live close to me, what are they hitting you for?

Trust me I am not looking for the cheapest doctor, they have some for $500 an eye here, but I do want to see if 2K an eye is about right....

What do you see when there operating on you eye. Or does your eye go black because of the drops?

Nice, congrats!

I had my eyes done with Lasik about two years ago. I have 20/20 in one eye and 20/15 in the other. I was -3.75 and -4.5 before surgery. After the surgery I had one eye that was bloodshot for about 10 days due to the pressure on the eye to hold it steady for surgery. I had minor night halos which gradually subsided to virtually nothing.

I am very satisfied with the results. Being free of glasses after a lifetime of fumbling in the dark and being completely blind in the pool is a liberating experience. Glad to hear everything went well with yours.

Total for both eyes with the wavefront was $3100. Without would have been $2400. There's some a bit cheaper than then want to charge you $400 an eye to use the newer laser that cuts the flap. My doc only uses that so it's already in his price.

All I saw was a fuzzy red dot they told me to look at and a ring of light around it.

I want to have LASIK done so badly, but I have astigmatism in both eyes, as well as having terrible eyesight.

I've heard they can't fix both. :(

50/50 vision :glugglug

I had astigmatism in my right eye and slight in my left. It can be corrected but just as with the limits for vision correction.. there's a maximum level of astigmatism that they can correct. If yours is above that they won't.

I have decided to get this done. I am not to sure abut getting a layer of my eye sliced almost off while awake.
Seems strange to pay 4K to have someone slice a portion of your eye almost off, then shoot a high powered laser in it.
