I want to operate my eyes by Lazek method, any comments on it?


Both of my eyes are 2.25 Astigmatism and 0.75 far viewing and I am 33 years old and live in Iran. Is this operation safe enough to help me get rid of my glasses?

I just answered this question elsewhere but...

mine would have cost $4000 (wavefront lasik)

I was gonna do it but im glad I didn't i cancelled two days before operation... they would have really overcorrected me due to a mistake in the perscription.. plus I have large pupils and my perscription changed in the last year... I guess
I went to a bad place because they didnt tell me ANYTHING

My eyes are even already a little dry and I had to ask for eye drops for part of the exam, they simply just gave me the drops and didnt warn about the severe dry eye problems people with already dry eye experience...

anyways i pray everyday for thanks that I didnt do it :)

you mite be fine tho, i dont know what your story is... but a VAST majority of people are fine... just be very careful with the pre-op, find out everything they are supposed to check and make sure they do it!! that was my issue!!! :P

Maybe I will try again in many years when the technology gets better

make sure your gunna go to a dam good person. my dad had it done 23 times cuz they messed up the first time... and just to let you kno it ranger from 2,000 to 16,000 u.s. dollars!!
thats in comparison about as much as good car
