How much does Lasik eye I have a cousin that got Lasik
eye surgery in Mexico for
about $400 for each eye. Is
this a typical price in
Mexico? In the U.S., prices
are typically three times as
much, like in the $1,500 to
$2,000 range for each eye. I'm
just a little hesitant doing
any kind of surgery in Mexico.
I currently live in Dallas but
I'm looking for affordable
Lasik. Thanks

Stay away from mexico for any surgery. it costs more here because a Professional does it. it costs less in mexico because a wanna be US Citizen doctor does it. |

Can LASIK eye surgery be done I wear glasses, and I actually
can't wear contacts (which I
purchased many years ago)
because my eye instinctively
closes whenever the contact
gets too close to my eyeball.
I also have some issues with
keeping my eye open through a
surgical procedure, since I
might end up blinking during
the LASIK process.
Would it be possible for me to
be under anesthesia throughout
the surgery?

No, the whole procedure takes less than 2 minutes, and your eye is clamped open, so you can't blink. Most people are squeamish about that, but they have all the bases covered. They give you a valium or something before the treatment anyway, so you won't even care what they are doing...and it's over before you know it. |

It's been well over a year since your surgery, so normally the gym would be perfectly safe. But, if you had encountered any problems after surgery, you should check with your doctor before engaging in any rigorous activity. |

The FDA has approved LASIK for those over the age of 18. The real question is whether or not your prescription is stable. See the source: http://www.usaeyes.org/lasik/f aq/lasik-age.htm |

can a person get lasik eye friend and i are debating
about it. we're part of the
DEP program for the USMC and
he's thinking about getting
lasik eye surgery. will he be
able to? trust me he has
really bad eye sight.

I would suggest that you talk with a Marine recruiter,first. The Navy might already have a Lasik program to correct vision. If this is the case, your friend could save a few thousand bucks in the cost for Lasik if the Navy does it free ! The navy takes care of all USMC medical care ! |
