Has any of us have laser eye surgery??
Answer:
It's risky. Make sure you do plenty of research formerly embarking on this. You enjoy a very minor inconvenience - wearring specs. Is it really worth risking blindness?
This BBC article will start you off -

i've considered this for a while.. supposedly roughly speaking lb300 per eye.. as legend have it lol
i shudda got it wen i be still on the NHS =(
If you have insurance it should not cost you may be basically your co-payment which should not be more than you can manage, i haven't have it done thank God but i have see and work with society who had it and they voice it was basically so easy no problem and be back at work surrounded by 4-5 days, but if you are scared please speak near your optician.
Cost shouldn't cause concern, what matter is that you gain better vision. As next to any "op" there's always a risk.. though they will convey you its about 1 surrounded by 1000 or something similar.
You dont specify why you are thinking of having Laser treatment but my mum regain her vision before this year after undergoing cataract removal. During the op she moved slightly which resulted surrounded by a tear to her contemporary lense, so she had to own a stitch in her eye temporarily. The stitch be later removed by laser.
We adjectives knew the risks, we be well informed and my mum is a physical worrier when it comes to hospitals and such. But the very subsequent morning her sight have returned and after three months of total blindness she could see. "Hello Joe" she said when I eventually got up that morning. as expected I wept, near joy. It be well worth adjectives the check-ups and procedures. The actual op took a mere 18 minutes...!!
So. (sorry for rambling) if you need the treatment, travel for it... I'm sure everything will be fine.
i had a friend who did it, it cost her something like $1000 she said it was worth it
I have it done in 2000. I love it! After wearing eyeglasses for 40 years, now my distance reverie is 20/20 (or a wee bit better).
Two problems, hwoever:
Now I need reading specs. I can read but +2.00 nonpresription glasses help out alot. And they cost $5. For younger folks, this is not so much a problem, however.
At night, lights hold a shimmering. From what I understand, this problem have been pretty much eliminate with newer technique.
But even with these two minor problems, I'd do it again. There seem to be lots of urban myths about nation going blind or someone has a friend who have a friend...
Talk to your opthamolgist and get the facts.
It cost me almost $1500.
I HAD GLASS EYES FITTED I HAD TO DRILL HOLES IN THEM I COULDNT SEE A THING
