I’ve worn glasses 4ev, finally considering LASIK🍋

2024/7/21 Edited to

... Read moreIf you've been wearing glasses for what feels like forever, you're not alone. Many individuals consider LASIK surgery as a way to enhance their quality of life by eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. LASIK, which stands for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis, is a popular refractive surgery that reshapes the cornea to improve vision. It's essential to understand the procedure, potential risks, and benefits. Common benefits include immediate results, often allowing patients to achieve 20/25 vision or better. However, potential side effects may include dry eyes or visual disturbances. Consulting with a certified ophthalmologist will help you determine if you're a suitable candidate based on your eye health and prescription. Additionally, factors such as age, eye condition, and lifestyle should be evaluated. With the right information and professional advice, transitioning from glasses to a life free of lenses can be an empowering step towards improved vision and convenience.

It takes a lot of skill to be able to put in a Scleral lens. I often think about getting older and my hands becoming too shakey or my body not able to to tolerate it. Sometimes that’s heavier than I like it to be ❤️
