I had PRK done six days ago and my vision is getting better but it’s still kinda blurry.

How long did it take for you (personally) to see clearly?

mini_me asked:


I have been using glasses for the past 14 years of my life and every time I go to have my eyes checked and prescription done I see doctors using glasses and when every single time I ask about why they havent had surgery done they tell me that they are too busy performing them and dont have time to get it done. I sure dont belive that answer. I am thinking about having surgery myself but the fact that doctors are not getting it themselves make me think it twice.

vix asked:


so i have an astigmatism in my right eye, and my sight is jacked up in that one eye. i have a hard time with putting in contacts, idky, and i was wondering about lasik.
does anyone know how much it costs? and if getting the laser kind is some kind of hassel compared to getting the one were they cut your eye with a knife(which is never going to happen to my eye)? and isnt there something different if your dealing with an astigmatism?
