Thats correct MR ALBERTA. The procedure has been used for years before laser surgery became the fashion.There seems to be a high success rate ,with a skillful surgeon without some of the complications suffered by the laser patients and the ability to correct without loss of tissue.
For me ,I will stick with glasses .
All the best stikehs.................

All jokes.. I just got myself some new frames. I have been considering laser surgery as well, but after reading this thread.... ehhhhh I'm still young anyhow.. I can wait on it.

Anyways, good luck with the procedure, let us know how things go.

I am pretty young myself, 23.... although my eyes have been stable for a while now 3+ years... so I should be good to go.

Well, good luck to you! Please do let us know how the procedure goes.

good lord, I don't feel so bad with these -6.25 slightly astigmatistic eyes of my own! I personally have never considered laser eye surgery, glasses and contacts suit me fine..heck I only wear my contacts once or twice a month. talk about laaaaaaazy!

Contacts suck! They suck big time for me anyways... I've tried over 6 pairs and all of them sucked haha. They were all so uncomforatable and irritating. It's too bad, as I don't mind putting them in.... and they're a nice break from glasses. I guess my eyes just don't like contacts.
