Corrective Vision

I was thinking of the possibility of me going under the knife...! Plastic sugery..no lah. Am not that beauty conscious.




I was thinking whether I could correct my vision permanently....and go thru a laser surgery. Can I..? I am so bored of wearing glasses and using contact lenses seems cumbersome as it need to be remove and cleanse on a daily basis. Sounds troublesome for a lazy person like me. I don't have the time to do so.

I was reading infos about LASIK treatment a while ago. Sounds interesting.

According to Wikipedia, Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis or LASIK is a type of refrefractive laser eye surgery performed by ophthamologists for correcting myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism.

Many patients choose LASIK as an alternative to wearing corrective eye glasses or contact lenses.

I came acrossed a few sites that say that up to 3% of people have bad results. Sometimes the vision can stay clear and crisp but sometimes it deteriorate and one may need another operation. It depends on the doctor and how the eyes react.

Since vision is something I really value...that seems a risk. The chances of losing my eye sight ...there's a possibility though extremely slim. Gotta do a thorough research on this.

I need to ask myself several questions before I sign up for this surgery.

What are my intentions of putting off my spectacles?

Is it for beauty or convenient sake?

Is it worth to invest on such procedure?

Is there a need to perform the surgery?

Feed back..anyone.?
