Lasik

Post by Über§oldier »

<center> Well, tomorrow I go for my Lasik eye surgery. I would be liying if I said that I wasn't scared. I am going to have both eyes done at the same time. They are telling me the procedure will only take a few minutes, however, I have to be there 2-3 hours. Numbing my eyes and sedating me is somewhat pleasing. I don't want to sneeze while the laser is zapping away. It definately will have a huge benefit by not wearing these freakin' glassess any longer, especially while playing MOH.</center>

<center> :70: If anyone has had this procedure done, I could really use some comfort right about now. :70: </center>

Uber i havn't had lasik but i surely wish i could.When i was born i had a lazy eye and have had 4 eye operations trying to fix and straighten it.I am a lot older now and have to realize there is nothing that can be done.I enquired about it but nothing could be done for me.I know 2 people who have had cataracs and one lasik and all were good no problems at all.
I personally would love to wear glasses to get full vision and its funny people who wear them want to get rid of them.I guess you will be getting pupil dialating drips which makes everything very very blury so if thats the case dont expect to drive after the lasik (you proberly wont be able to drive anyway ).
Anyway good luck dude and dont worry too much.It is a proven and tested procedure and they are experts at what they do so i am sure you are in very good hands.

Uber,
I had the procedure done a year ago. Both eyes same time. I was in and out in an hour and by the end of the first day, clear vision. My eyes ended up better than 20/20. My only word of advice is keep lots of drops in them for the first couple months. They tend to dry out really easy.
Best of luck

<center>Thank you everyone for you comforting words and support. I was scared out of my mind. :cheers: </center>
<center>I'm really enjoying not wearing glasses anymore. I still keep reaching to push them up on my nose but they are not there. :tongue: </center>
<center>I'll be on when my eyes quit fluchuating from good to blurry.</center>
<center> :twl: Thanks again guys! :twl: </center>
