I have been having eye trouble for a year now and hate the idea of wearing glasses. I have pondered the idea of surgical vision, but the idea of surgery scares me. My friend just had surgery on her eyes and used <a href="http://www.2020eyesite.com/" rel="nofollow">all laser lasik</a>. With this type of surgery, it can be tricky. The surgeon needs to create a corneal flap. And this can be accomplished using a mechanical instrument called a microkeratome, or a femtosecond laser. I heard that it is thought that there may be more precision in some patients using the femtosecond laser as to the thickness of the flap and to the universal form contour. I personally, have to find the right doctor to get the job done. Hope this helps many out. Thank you again. I loved the reading.

I...Its been 2 years since I got my lasik procedure. I havent checked my eye-sight in the last year, but I suspect that its still 20/20. <br />The one issue that I did have was dry eyes after the procedure. I tried many different things to fix it. I currently have punctal pugs. It took about a year and a half for the dry eyes to stabilize. In the beginning they were uncomfortable (dry eyes), but now with the plugs and my eyes also adjusting (i think they make more tears), it feels a lot better.<br />In conclusion, was I happy with Icon Lasik - yes. But sometimes I wonder if I went to 20/20 institute, if I wouldnt have had the dry eye issue. Its hard to say one way or the other (as I might have been prone to dry eyes).<br />Overall - its great to not have to wear specs any more.<br />(My wife had hers done when we lived in Montana and it was a more expensive wave front laser. 5 years later she still has 20/20 vision, and never once suffered from dry eyes).<br />Hope this info helps...Raj Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02773005045522319448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7656888.post-84040729822254582542010-06-09T10:50:57.380-06:002010-06-09T10:50:57.380-06:00Hello Raj,

I was wondering if you could give me some advice on choosing and if you would go through it again. <br /><br />Hope to hear from you!<br /><br />-Chris MeyerUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06088549797017207476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7656888.post-30049590846584819142008-09-23T10:30:00.000-06:002008-09-23T10:30:00.000-06:00Hi,How are you doing now?
