Lasik eye scam

[MrTop]

DO NOT GET THIS!

Too many problems.

Sometimes it is very good.

Sometimes it is not.

Stay with glasses.

I got Lasik in 2001. But they told me eventually I would at least need reading glasses and the best they could get my vision was 20-30 (it was around 20-300 and 20-350 prior to Lasik). Worked fine until around 2010 when I had to finally get reading glasses. Then contact lenses in 2011. Since 2012 I cannot drive without either glasses or contacts. My vision is around 20-150 now but still not as bad as pre-Lasik. And I used to get pink eye about once a year pre-Lasik and haven't had it since.

I know they are getting better at the process over time. It used to be they didn't want to perform the procedure on anyone over 40 years of age. Now, apparently they can.

It does work at first. Better off sticking with glasses .

I wear contacts, have for a long time, I'm way to scared to get the lasik thing done, the thought of a laser on my eyeball freaks me the fuck out, heard some bad stories about it

I'm also a contact lens wearer.

Every now and then, I'll give my eyes a two or three-day break by wearing glasses.

Never seriously considered the Lasik procedure.

Prices really vary.

never knew how serious the problems people were experiencing until i saw a documentary regarding plenty of suicides were reported due to complications resulting from the surgery.
it was an eye-opener for sure (no pun intended)

good move. When doctors say patients are laying -120 both sides stay away

 

[blueline]

Thought about it off and on for years....need my contacts to drive or do anything.....just can't get myself to do it....don't want to mess with my eyes.
Someone I know did it last year...was blind in one eye till another procedure weeks later...no thanks

I play tennis with a lasik surgeon, he needs it but wont get it because he says its not worth the risk, but yet he performs them

Seems most appropriate for someone that isn't too very visually challenged and not quite middle-aged.... whatever that is?

Doug has come full circle, weaving his middle-age thread with MrTop's thread on the risks of Lasik.
