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.

well, its now been about 4.5 days since the surgery and I can say that it definaltey was a success. the first 3 days were not much fun, vision wasn't great (foggy and blurry) not to mention very painful, kinda felt like someone had poured sand in my eyes, but on the fourth day everything seemed to get much better. The discomfort is about 90% gone, and I'd say my vision is at about 80% of where it should be... all in all so far i am definaltey happy and would recommend Gimbel to anyone who is thinking of doing it. I would definatley not going with one of the "bargain brand" places, but rather gimbel or demong. Ended up paying $2300 after i had a $400 corporate discount.
