Big John! 2,062 Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 I have nothing to offer in answer to your question. But, I suspect that it will help you greatly. I've always had 2010. My vision when getting physicals used to make nurses laugh as I'd go straight to the bottom line. Now I wear fucking glasses and fucking hate them. I have a consultation on the 14th for lasik. I can't wait to get it done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's my understanding that you can get a lasik "tune-up". That is true mine came with a lifetime garuantee. So free enhancements. My vision is currently 2015 after LASIK. Worth every penny.

Big John! 2,062 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 a little scaird working on a new set [wish me well] God bless. I don't blame you. Vision, even when screwed up is priceless. You'll be ok. Looking forward to you posting up how great your vision is and how you wish this had been done years ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

G O B 3,516 Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Lasic has more bad side effects the older you are when you have it done.Corneas heal slower that any other part of your body. If you are a half a century or older, then it is not such a good idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YOT 3,743 Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Many years ago wife was the youngest patient her doctor had done cateract lens replacement surgery to. The change was immediate and immensely beneficial. I have had Lasix, and that was also and incredible improvement. I was legally blind before. 20/400 and 20/600. After I was 20/20R - 20/15L. I'm due for an enhancement in my left eye. I also need to wear glasses when reading and most of my long guns have an optic on them due to presbiopia. Oh well...
