“Lasik - go for it!”
Lasik: Worth it
Pain: Uncomfortable
Pros
I can actually see street signs in the day and night time.
I don't have to wear or keep up with eye wear.
Most importantly, I feel safer because of better vision.
I no longer squint all day when trying to look at something or someone.
I Can finally judge distances between things
After a few days I had superman vision, I could read a license plate clear down the street.
Cons
During the procedure, it was the most uncomfortable feelings I have ever felt in my life. Not at all painful, but its something you can't even imagine.
After the procedure, I felt like I was being tourtured, my eyes itched and burn so bad. I could not go to sleep like they ask you to, and they did not give me any sleeping medication.
You have to remember to take those eye drops often.
If you like wearing colored contacts, you have to stop because it scratches your eyes up, found out the hard way.
I often have weird headache that can be triggered by light.
Over all though, your quality of life can become so much better.

Hey, the colored contacts scratch up ur eyes? Is that after or just period or in general. I like wearing colored contacts, but I only want to wear them occasionally. 1-2 times a week. Do you think that would still irritate my eyes?
