Who has experience with lasik eye surgery and would like to tell me about it?

Q. How long does it last? Is the cost/last really worth it? Did it hurt afterwards? Anything else you want to tell me about it?

A. LASIK should last your whole life. if you would ever need an enhancement you could get one done. I had mine done at TLC Vision and I can go in if I ever need an enhancement done and they would do it for free (it all depends on who you get to do the surgery).

No hurt at all after I had it, they give you drops to put in your eyes and eye guards for at night so you don't scratch or rub them.

I could see as soon as I sat up on the operating table. They had me read the clock on the wall.

I would recommend this for anyone.


What is the average cost of lasik or PRK for your eyes?
Q. I want to have mine done and I went to a eye doctor today just to kinda check it out and all went well and they set up a plan for me to make payments and stuff but I was wondering if they are reasonable in the cost to do the procedure. Anyone have any idea as to the cost of this ? Thanks.

A. Hi, my name is Dr. Jay Lustbader, and I am an ophthalmologist with LasikPlus.
You will find that the cost of Lasik or PRK will vary from provider to provider. When comparing prices, there are several important factors to keep in mind. One is what technology you are getting for the price. Some surgeons offer all-laser Lasik, while others are still using a blade. Some surgeons offer custom wavefront treatments, others do not. You want to be sure you are getting the most up-to-date technology for the price you pay. A second consideration is whether the price includes coverage for enhancements, if an additional touch-up is needed in the future. Finally, in addition to price, you should consider the experience of the surgeon and the quality of the staff when deciding where to have the procedure done.
The best way to investigate these issues and to find out if Lasik is right for you is to have a thorough exam and consultation with a doctor. At LasikPlus, we provide a free comprehensive Lasik exam and consultation using the latest technology. For additional information or to set up a free consultative exam with your local LasikPlus doctor, you may call 1-866-953-0282 or visit us on the web at http://tinyurl.com/Dr-Lustbader. Other helpful resources are the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the Eye Surgery Education Council.


How long does it take to see clearly after Lasik/Customvue eye surgery?
Q. I had mine done 4 days ago and things are still blurry!

A. That varies from person to person. Several things can affect post op vision clarity. 1) Post op dryness can decrease visual acuity 2) Inflammation 3) Residual prescription remaining following the procedure. 4) Normal post op healing.

So depending upon what is causing your post op blurriness, it may just take time and frequent lubrication or it may actually require an enhancement procedure later on should you not be right on the numbers with your correction.
