Where is there a good place to go to for laser eye surgery?
bruinssig
I am considering getting laser eye surgery because I am extremely near-sighted having a 7 or greater strength in both eyes with one eye needing a cylinder strength. However, I am a little nervous about the place I am going to. They offered a place to get drinks while I was there and when the procedure is done, both eyes are done on the same day. Now, I am thinking, "They must be having trouble attracting business if they are offering drinks to people", and, isn't it common procedure to do only one eye at a time when doing laser eye surgery in case something goes wrong? Would anyone know of a good, reputable place in Massachusetts close to the suburbs of Boston to go to for laser eye surgery?
I was also reading one other question on Yahoo questions answers and someone mentioned there is also a procedure using soundwaves to correct eye problems. Does anyone know anything about this procedure?
Answer
I had Lasik eye surgery 2years ago and I have never regretted it. I had both eyes done at the same time and had no problems whatsoever and my eyesight is still perfect.
I am in the UK so dont know about companies in the US but make sure you shop around. All companies have promotions (mine said £395 per eye but once I had consultations and tests I finally paid £1095 per eye) - so dont be tempted by offers or free things your eyes are very important.
All I can recommend is checking out customer feedback from companies and just go to a few consultations to suss them all out. Also dont settle for the cheapest - this is not always the best for you.
Good luck - it is the best thing I have ever done and you will not regret it

Astigmatism (rugby ball shaped eyes)?
tyson
Astigmatism (rugby ball shaped eyes) why is laser eye surgery quoted more expensive into the thousands if they are that shape. when quotes on adverts are 395 per eye and if a career requires you too have 20/20 vision and i have that done will they still accept that since i don't want too pay all that money too be refused that career because laser surgery does not count.
Answer
I would check with your chosen career route first - some will accept laser surgery and some won't. Also, some places will accept 20/20 vision WITH glasses or contact lenses worn.
I worked somewhere that advertised laser at these prices so i think i know where you are talking about lol...
This price IS true, but it is only for the lowest prescriptions, and for no astigmatism, and with the cheapest type of laser used.
The price increases the higher your prescription is, if you have astigmatism, and if you decide to go for the better type of laser/procedures.
These procedures are better, but they unfortunately are more expensive, and most of the people i seen here did actually end up paying roughly £2000-3000. When i got a quote for a family member, it was £3300 for their eyes, with the best procedure, and they have no astigmatism.
