MoonGoddess 07-10-2003, 01:12 PM Hi - have any of you got LASIK eye surgery? How did it go? Are you happy you had it done? Please get back to me ASAP! I want to do it but I am scared, I am -2 in both eyes, mild prescription and I am in San Diego, CA. Any advice?? Thanks :-) Goddess redripeapple@aol.com zuzu8 07-10-2003, 04:02 PM Hi MoonGoddess- I haven't had this procedure done but have you posted this on the EYE and VISION BOARD? I know you'll get lots of "hits" there. http://www.healthboards.com/cgi/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topics&number=50 normorcrazy 07-10-2003, 04:37 PM My brother had it done and he said it's the best thing he's ever spent his money on. Sue90 07-10-2003, 04:47 PM Two of my hubbies co-workers had it done and they love the results. It was expensive though and it may have to be done again sometime in the future. I wear glasses and like all the new styles these days..the kids think there cool. Sue90 tvierra 07-11-2003, 04:24 PM I had the surgery done two years ago. It was the best thing I ever did. Follow their instructions to the T. Do NOT rub your eyes after the surgery for a good year. My vision is 20 20 in both eyes. Perfect. I wore glasses since I was 13. Never again. Or, at least I hope not. Get the surgery. The process is not bad. It's over in about 10 minutes. Audrey-B 07-12-2003, 07:21 AM I had it done 5 and a half years ago and my vision has remained great ever since. My vision was around -4.5 when i had it done and i had both eyes done at once (some people are scared and do one eye at a time). It's the best money i ever spent. After i had it done i used to go to the bathroom each night to take my contacts out... I kept forgetting that i wasn't wearing them anymore http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/biggrin.gif It's great to be able to dive into water and keep my eyes open and not worry about losing a contact lense, go to the beach for a swim and be able to see where you left your towel, not have to take solutions and saline for contacts with me each time i go away, i can be lazy and fall asleep and not worry about did i take my contacts out?, not having to constantly clean glasses, getting rain drops on glasses and red marks on my nose from glasses, always having to update glasses and contacts. I have never taken my eyes sight for granted since having it corrected b/c it was almost like being blind and having somebody perform a miracle and giving you your sight back http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif |
