1. It's the best money I've ever spent! Nothing's been better than waking up in the morning and being able to read the clock, being able to see actual leaves on trees, being able to ride in convertibles without it irritating my eyes! If I had it all to do over I would definitely do it again. Read about the actual surgery, understand what is involved so you don't panic during surgery, take necessary precautions to protect your eyes afterwards. It's a definite risk, but again, for me it's been well worth it all. Good luck!
2. lasik is very safe...go ahead with that..
3. There are limits to the refraction that can be dealt with by Lasik, but other techniques exist for such high refractions. The casualty rate is low, for annoying side effects and very low for major problems, but that is little reassurance if you happen to be one of them. The vast majority of people, about 96%, are happy to very happy with the outcome even if the have some degree of side-effect. The most common are: The Rx not as near zero as hoped, Dry eyes, temporarily or permanently. Flare and glare, especially at night. To help brief yourself, try the FDA lasik website, and a sample consent form, below.
4. Well, I haven't had it myself personally, but a lot of friends swear by it, and are glad that they got it. My brother got it India through India Health Guru Consultants, and he said it was great Lasik eye surgery helped millions of people to be able to see, without the help of contacts and glasses. It will help you too, but make sure you get the right doctor for the procedure. After the surgery, one feels mild discomfort or pain for a couple of days. The procedure itself is not painful because they give you anaesthetic drops to numb the eye. For the first week, one may have sensitivity to light as blurry vision and dry eyes. All these side effects disappear within a few days and. The process is simple, safe and fast. They are making big improvements in this field, so it's probably worth it if you can afford it and don't need to use your eyes for a few days for info, please visit the link http://www.indianhealthguru.com
5. LASIK eye surgery is a medical procedure that can correct your vision by altering the physical properties of your eye. Unlike traditional surgical procedures that depend upon the skills and steadiness of the surgeon's hand, advanced LASIK eye surgery is computer controlled. In addition to determining whether or not you're a good candidate for LASIK, the procedure also records quite a bit of data that's specific to your eyes. If you choose to proceed with the LASIK surgery, this data is used to program the computer controlled LASIK equipment to insure that your eyes are modified exactly in the proper manner so as to provide maximum benefit. LASIK eye surgery is relatively safe and it can free you from glasses and contacts.
