Want a new pair of eyes? Get Lasik Done Today

Last year my wife and I decided to get her eyes "fixed"
using lasik surgery. We saw an ad in the newspaper for
$299 per eye and made an appointment.
When we got to the appointment we were told that she
had an astigmatism that would just barely allow her to
be a good candidate for surgery. But she could not be
operated on with the lasik, only the Visx which was
more expensive, of course. About $500 per eye more
expensive.
We scheduled the surgery for 2 weeks from the date of
our initial appointment.
When the day, came, I was a little scared because someone
was going to operate on my baby's eyes. I didn't want
anything bad to happen.
The doctor explained exactly what they would do. First
the computer would make a 3 dimensional picture of her
eyes. Then it would calculate exactly how the lens needed
to be shaped in order to give her the most perfect vision
she could get.
After the computer was done making the 3D map of her eyes,
the surgeon would cut a small flap in the cornea of her
eye and lay the flap back. Then the laser would do its
thing. The laser portion of the surgery took less than 2
minutes. The whole surgery including recovery took about
45 minutes. The flap was laid back in place and the surgery
would be complete.
Everything went as planned and within 2 hours we were on
our way home. She had to keep her eyes closed for 3-4
hours so the flap could start to heal.
The next day we visited the doctor to check on how the
surgery went and my wife was now seeing 20-20. It was
unbelievable and very rewarding.
Now all she had to do was to wear special mask at night for
3-4 weeks so that if she rubbed her eyes during the night
the flap would not be dislodged.
Even though she could not rub her eyes when they were
itching, my wife said it was worth it. After more than 12
months, she is still seeing 20-20 with no complications at
all.
If you decide to do the surgery, spend the extra money to
get a 1 year guarantee if you need to get a touch up to
make your sight the best it can be. If you don't get the
insurance, you will have to pay the entire amount again.
My wife says that Lasik is great. She has really enjoyed
not having to wear glasses or contact lenses.
