Another LASIK Success Today!!

Postby booger » Wed Jun 12, 2002 9:22 pm

I followed 00duck and had the laser zapper today and quite frankly it's a miracle. I went from off the scale legally blind to much better if not 20/20. Since I don't know what 20/20 is, I can't say for sure, but I'll find out tomorrow on the follow-up visit.

Guys, don't hesitate to get this procedure done, it's like science fiction come true and a hell of a lot better than flying cars. No more glasses or hard contact lenses. Whooopeeee!

Hey Red, send me a PM with all the info about the doctor that did your surgery. I'm getting tired of these glasses.

My wife went from coke bottle glasses to 20/15 after the lasik surgery, but still has a little dry eye in one of them. If I did not have a buckle in one of my eyes, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Hey Jeff: It's o.k. if you get the surgery. However, if I were you I might try to talk my girlfriend out of it..... [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Nah. They won't let a white guy comedian on TV anymore unless he is gay or does that redneck routine. I better just stick to harrassing you. Plus, think of the material that I have not even used yet! [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

will LASIK work on astygmatism? Don't know how you spell that, but I would like to get back to 20/20...would help with passing the FAA medical-I DESPISE GLASSES!...oh, and would prevent me from shooting bluebills that I think are mallards.

Yeh Wingman, astigmatism was 50% of my problem, but no more. I do know that the FAA and/or certain pilots association, airlines etc. all have different rules on LASIK. The doctor discussed this during my initial consultation but since I'm not a pilot I didn't pay any attention.
