Eye Procedure

usmousie asked:


I knew an eye surgeon (cute but my friend’s bf) and he explained to me that Lasik machinery had only been made to operate on normal/average eyes. He said that once the surgery becomes much more popular, it will be profitable for a company to design a system that can also work on (my) eyes with large pupils.

Obviously he knew what he was talking about, as a Lasik surgeon, but I am wondering whether since then this new equipment has been manufactured. Does anyone know?

why do some countries air force allow pilots to have vision surgery like lasik and prk and others don’t?

Izzy asked:


I have been wearing contact lenses for over 14 years now and my glasses tend to give me headaches. I’m tired on relying on my contact to be able to see the world. Does anyone know if Tri-Care covers Lasik surgery.

hzattari asked:


why is one not recommended to do phacoemulsification instead of lasik. that would solve all lens and number problems once and for all

Saegis asked:


my main question is the one in the title, but i do have a few others.

is it possible to have a genetic problem with ur eyes where ur eyesight gets worse faster than a “normal person”? I am asking this question becuz i am 5 years younger than my brother and we both use the computer about the same number of hours a day (he might even use it more than me), but my eyesight is MUCH worse than his.

wat is the recommended age to get lasik?

James F asked:


Please explain where, and why. I am in the market to get this done this or next month and my eyes are NOT something I am willing to risk on any random doctors office!

Kim M asked:


Can lasar eye surgury be performed on someone that can not see far away but also wears bi-focals. If not would contacts be an option?

♥Special♥One♥ asked:


What are the long term effects of them? How much would they cost? When can you get it /at what age ?

Dave44 asked:


I get ghosting and starbursts especially when my pupils are dialated. Should I dismiss lasiks and other laser surgeries due to the fact that my night vision could get a lot worse? I feel like I might be stuck with RGP contacts as the only thing that makes my vision satisfactory while giving me periphial vision as well.

lucer asked:


I’m thinking of getting laser eye surgery to correct my vision but don’t know where to even begin… anyone have any good recommendations in the San Francisco Bay Area? Only personal experiences please.
