I'm thinking about getting Lasik done on my eyes. I have astigmatism and am right above being declared legally blind. But these are my eyes were talking about and I'm more than a little bit hesitant. With so many different advertisements and the overwhelming amount of information but lack of personal reviews available on the internet, I'm not sure where to start. I was hoping to get referrals from personal experiences. Thank you very much.

Well, I can't really send you to website or anything. But I can tell you my experience. I used Corneal Consultants ( http://corneacolorado.com ) which is located near Highlands Ranch. Dr. Damiano was my doctor. I used doctors from this office for normal eye check ups for at least a decade before I had the eye surgery. Both Damiano and Forstot have impressive resumes. I was happy with my results (I did PRK instead of LASIK, but they are pretty similar). I felt more comfortable with them since they are both corneal surgeons that do much more complicated procedures than LASIK (things like transplants). I figured if anything went wrong, I had a doctor who could do something about it. And the 'cutting' involved in PRK or LASIK would be simple compared to what they normally do (and do well). There are two drawbacks. First, they are more expensive than other places. I personally think my eyes are worth the expense of a doctor I trust. And the 'money back' offers are so silly in my opinion. "Hey, we just blinded you, but don't worry, here's you $200 back!" THe second drawback is that these guys are busy, so it can be harder to get quality time with the doctor. Almost all the office contact I had was with a trainee. But then again, you don't feel bad about asking a trainee a bunch of stupid questions. And the trainee had an MD as well, so he knew what he was talking about.
Well, I hope that helps. My advice would be go for a consult and find a doctor you trust. And good luck! I really do like waking up in the morning and being able to read the alarm clock.
