How much does lasik eye I've been wanting lasik eye
surgery for a long while now
coz I'm so sick of contacts
and glasses. Is there monthly
payments or payment in full?
And will getting lasik get rid
of astigmatism, or lazy eyes
as well??

Mine was about $2K per eye. But it depends on the method of surgery, the extensiveness of corrective work needed, and the doctor you use. Most places have financing available. I think it can help astigmatism, but I don't know about lazy eye. Consultations are usually free of charge so be sure to visit a few doctors to find the one that's best for you. These are your eyes, you don't want to bargain shop, and the price is worth it. |

What does the future hold for I'm going to school to become
a commercial pilot. Obviously
my career depends on being
able to see 20/20 with or
without correction (I'm 20/200
without contacts, slight
astigmatism). I'm 30 years now
but have considered eye
surgery my entire life. (even
RK back in the day). Obviously
technology has improved by
leaps and bounds. When LASIK
rolled out I thought how could
it get better than this? My
best friend is a MD and he
told me to hold off for a few
years (this was 4-5 years ago)
and now we have custom
wavefront LASIK. I have had
friends who've had both done
with excellent results. Now
with wavefront LASIK
advancements, what else is on
the horizon??? Are some
stellar new techniques
currently being developed that
will roll out in the next 4-5
years?
My eye doctor is suggesting
PRK. Night vision problems
could also end my career. I've
heard there is less chance of
reduced night vision (halos
/startbursts) with PRK. The
NAVY only allows PRK surgery
for their pilots.

You are right about the side effects. Thats whats stopping me from doing the procedure so far. There are a lot more but the main side effects are halos and dry eyes. I saw some more mentioned here http://lasereyesurgerytruth.co m/vision/latest/be-aware-of-th ese-laser-eye-surgery-complica tions-2.html |

FDA it self is greed driven they cover optical industry up. man if i can find reports that FDA and optical industry are working together also over government department reports, i will sue them, i will not even care if i have to bring public unrest toward the optical industry. http://www.lasikdisaster.com/ http://www.myopia.org/ http://www.eyecollege.com/ http://www.central-fixation.co m/ http://www.preventmyopia.org/ http://www.cleareyesight.info/ http://web.singnet.com.sg/~han wen/nvifaq.htm government knows eyesight can be improved because they use it in the air force, so i don't know who else is playing the game, but once someone find more evidence, we will not give mercy to this fraud industry |

I had Lasik eye surgery done after wearing glasses for 16 years. It has been perfect for me. I have had no changes. Of course, as I age, I expect changes. I also co-manage refractive surgery and have seen hundreds of successful patients. It doesn't hurt, generally. There is a bit of pressure, but no real pain if you have LASIK. The PRK version (where no flap is cut) is a little more uncomfortable for the first few days following the procedure. I've seen several people who said they were in some pain, but healed just fine. I used to wear both glasses and contact lenses. I had LASIK done and it's the best decision I've ever made. I can see clearly, no squinting, no driving with glasses anymore. I can read road signs, see the individual leaves in the trees (they're not just a blurry mess anymore). It's also nice to be able to see what time it is when I wake up. The procedure is painless (although a bit uncomfortable) but takes less than 15 minutes. Highly recommended.

Why do insurance companies not Seems like they want people to
go through the rest of your
life wearing eye glasses or
contact lens. There doesn't
seem to be any real cure of
people with poor eye sight.
Their eye sight will always
get worse. Is poor eye sight a
condition that is not
treatable? All the eye doctor
does is get a person stronger
glasses over their life time.
If Lasik Eye Surgery is close
to a cure for poor eye sight
why doesn't the insurance
companies approve of it?

Because no insurance company is going to cover an elective procedure involving cutting into healthy tissue, for no reason save for cosmetics and saving time, at the risk of them having to spend another 10 years covering the treatments for when things go wrong. |
