About 6 years ago I had laser surgery on my eyes to correct my vision. Prior to the surgery I couldn’t see my own hands clearly, and I definitely needed my glasses to find my glasses.
Post surgery I had perfect vision in my right eye, and only a slight astigmatism in my left eye (as opposed to being dreadfully short-sighted in both and having a severely astigmatic left eye).
Whoo Hoo!
<insert time passing music>
Last week I started to get all to familiar headaches when sitting at the computer for any length of time… So I went to the optometrist
She checks my eyes and confirms what I’d started to suspect, my left eye isn’t focussing properly – it’s very slightly long-sighted, and it’s having more trouble with the residual astigmatism. It’s not bad enough to really *need* glasses, provided I can minimise the amount of time I spend staring at computer screens.
I write for a living, I explained, minimising the time I spend in front of a computer isn’t really conducive to earning a living.
So, now, I have reading glasses, just like nearly all old people have to get.
<sigh>
On the bright side – I do only need them for computer work, and having to get them eventually was always on the plan. And if I hadn’t had the surgery I’d have had to get bifocals (which are even worse!)
So I’m still of the opinion that the laser surgery was the amongst(1) the best things I’ve ever done.
And my glasses do have quite funky blue frames.
1) other things include getting married and the red run at Niseko

Believe me, the laser eye surgery really works wonders to the vision improvement. There are some cases which may go wrong. But you need to choose the doctor carefully and rely on their experience. You will find a lot of information about how to find a good doctor in the following link.

Hey everyone! so I have worn glasses my whole life and I can’t stand wearing contact cause i have a stigmatism and the contacts drive me crazy! I had to suffer all through school as a four eyes. But I recently got Lasik eye surgery done at the Lasik vision institute. I paid less then $800!
I found this amazing website-referer.us/2/f5Psi that offers you free consultation plus they have a Lasik special starting at $299 per eye! They have tons of nationwide locations and they can offer easy financing.
I just hope you can see the world how I see it now!
