does lasik eye surgery hurt?




Jes


my eyes are so bad and i get so frustrated always having to put contacts in to see in the shower, or put glasses on just to be able to find the bathroom in the middle of the night...

i'm such a baby, how bad does it really hurt? is it worth it? anyone have this done?
Also : i have a severe astigmatism... are they even able to perform surgery on that?



Answer
My husband has lasik done while we were engaged, it doesn't hurt and it did wonders for his eyes.
I watched the whole procedure and he couldn't feel anything and it was really neat to see it done.
He had severe astigmatism and his eyes are shaped like pointy footballs and not rounded. The doctor told him before he got the surgery that he was probably the WORST case he's scene come in for surgery in regards to astigmatism and the shape of his eyes- however, he was confident that he could work wonders.
Before he had lasik I could read about 12 lines beneath what he could on those eye charts (I have better than 20/20 vision) and after he had surgery I could only read two lines below him. Talk about a difference!! He has never looked back and I am glad to see him happy and able to 'see' things clearly for the first time since he was a little boy.
He also didn't care for contacts and couldn't wear them, I would go back through it all over again and I know he would too. He has 20/20 vision now and doesn't have to wear glasses, contacts and can see just fine like anyone who has naturally good vision. If our son gets his vision and not mine, we will be happy to get him lasik done too when he's old enough.
We highly recommend it to anyone we've ever met that is considering it, it was one of the best decisions we've made and I know he's thrilled to not wonder 'where are my glasses' or have them fog up when he leaves the house.

thinking of getting lasik eye surgery?

Q. Please look on this website www.lasikcomplications.com. I know there have been some tremendous results, but please consider the risks very carefully. I just lost the most wonderful brother, who took his life due to these unbearable complications. Please, no sarcasm. My heart's hurting too much. I'm just trying to help... Thanks.

There may be other websites available. My research has only just begun.


Answer
LASIK eye surgery does carry some risks, such as loss of vision. In some extremely rare cases, the patient may lose vision due to equipment malfunction, scarring or healing related complications.

One common risk of LASIK eye surgery is that any dry eye condition that is experienced right after surgery may hamper the healing process.
