you should seriously consider it. I had mine done in montreal. The pre stuff takes some time doing the measuring but the actual procedure I think took only ten minutes. Two days in a hotel room and I was driving home with no glasses. And I was one of those people that couldn't even stand putting contacts in but it was worth the ten minutes of freaking out. Other thing is the cost. Figure it cost me fourteen hundred I think, but I went years without buying contacts or glasses. Huge money savings. Imagine the technology is way better now it was still fairly new back then. I have contemplated seeing if I could get it done again.

well... of course I like to hear about positive experiences.
Thank you for writing that.

I think I'm beginning to consider it seriously these last few days. Before, I was avoiding to accept the fact that I really must do it

And those of you looking into lasik even if you are a good candidate, with present technology you only have a 10% chance of getting to 20/20 vision.

Read the fine print.

Personally I will stick with glasses until the success rate is a little higher.

I would if I could

I guess for me spending thousands of dollars for the liberty of not having to wear my glasses to find my glasses isn't carrot enough to chase after.

To each their own.

can't wear glasses, and it's not that expensive here. It's something about 2000-3000 $

 

[bribrius]

used to go on four, after stroke started sleeping a lot more, but last couple months I seem to be going back toward that four hour mark.
