1. I am an American eye Dr. that lives in Mansoura. Just like your brother and sister, if you are a good candidate for the op, then it is good. At -1.50, you don't have a strong enough correction, (according to most American standards) to have it done. We usually consider -2.00 through -7.00 reasonable candidates. If you have a good MD here and he says its ok, then do it. Nothing to be scared of, provided you have a skilled MD to perform the surgery. Do remember though, in about 7 years, the vision can return to a state that will require a correction and you will have to decide whether to do it again, or not. Good luck.
2. my aunt got it and she said its amazing my mom is thinking about getting im most likely going to get it but i have to wait until im in my 20's im really scared though
3. I haven't done it but Ive seen the process and don't be afraid at all. It doesn't hurt one bit. The doctors do it 20,000 times a day (depends on where you live) so they know what theyre doing. Besides in the long run your eyes will be much better.
