    I wore -3.50 glasses for about 30 years already, and decided to do this. I hate letting things come near my eyes, and never considered contact-lenses.. because of that. I flew to Medellin (Colombia) and paid US$ 650 at a top rated clinic for this surgery, using a newer Lasik machine, and it was quick! Only 4 minutes for each eye, and after 11 minutes on the surgery-bed… I was ready. I went from an awfull 20/200 vision to now a vision of 20/15, which is BETTER than 20/20 vision! Great!

    no, it’s actually really funny. I did not scare once because you have no pain, and the surgery is with laser so you see lights etc. there is no contact with the eye itself. my vision keeps getting better and better.

    I wear glasses and contacts but i think i might go with the surgery, but than look at it this way, life isn’t over yet, technology is being advanced and maybe one day they’ll make eye drops that make our vision better or something else so i dont know, i think i’d rather wait and see whats ahead in the future ..

    Apparently, it doesn’t hurt, it just feels a bit uncomfortable. I hear that the most irritating part of the surgery, is when they pull your eyelids apart.
