Have you ever heard any horror stories in regards to Lasik vision correction?
January 26, 2009 - I always wonder why some of the doctors performing Lasik eye surgery still wear glasses if the operation is so good. Is there some really huge risk involved that isn't talked about ...
- See the remarks listed here ... ... http://37signals.com/svn/archives2/lasik_advice.php ... ... Contact your local Medical Society regarding any Pros and Cons if you're considering treatment.
There are always horror stories. Mainly because people do not do there own research. Remember they are your eyes the doctor performing the proseedure has no risk involved if things go wrong. So do your self a favor research research research. Talk to people who had it done who did they use. Go sit in there waiting room talk to patients that had it done what were there outcomes. ... ... You wouldnt just hand $10k to a stranger and tell them what bank to put it in with your account would you?
Not all vision deficits can effectively be corrected with Lasik surgery. Those that can have proven to be greatly helped by Lasik. The post-operative care of the eye is very important in the total outcome of the surgery. If one contracts an infection in the eye after surgery, the outcome can be seriously negative. One may even lose the sight in that eye. These complications are very few and far between when the normal post-operative care is given and adhered to. The only complaint that sems to have any repeated frequency is that after Lasik surgery one might have night vision problems in the form of lights seeming to have spokes that go out radially from the light source. This is because of the very tiny scar tissue left behind on the cornea of the eye. Most people do not suffer any great discomfort from this side effect but it is among the most reported. For instance, at night, if one sees the headlights of an oncoming car, the lights seem to have rays of light going out from the center of the light source in a spoke fashion. Other than that, the surgery has helped many many thousands of people to see well enough to not need glasses to correct their vision any more. The vast majority of patients that have been polled after the surgery say that they were very glad that they had had the surgery and that they would do it again. The risks are small and the benefits are great.
