IF you have had it
How is the surgery preformed?
How long is it for each eye?
Is it painful at all?
Price Ranges?
msot importantly. . .
Is it worth it?
I am going to speak to a doctor about it as well but I first thought asking people who have it id done before might be helpful.
Thanks guys  |
I am an Ophthalmic Technician, I assist the doctor with laser eye surgery, so I can offer you some advice and help.
1. How is the surgery performed? A small flap is made with a tool called a micorkeratome, then laser treatment is applied to the cornea, then the flap is put back and it heals on its own.
2. How long for each eye? The whole procedure takes about 30 minutes.
3. Is it painful at all? No, it's not, you are numbed the whole time. You might feel slight discomfort afterwards. But you are given medication for this.
4. Price ranges? price can range anywhere from $599 per eye to $2,300 per eye depending on where you live and what your prescription is.
5. Is it worth it? I've never had a patient say that they regretted it.
