Laser/Lasik eye surgery Good or Bad?

My eyes are dry from constant contact llaser eye surgerylasses are impractical, do you recommend laser eye surgery, and is it safe? Have you had it lasikyourself?
Was it worth the money?

I had Lasik eye surgery with very good results. When you go in for the initial consultation they will test your eyes to determine if you are a surgery candidate.

The procedure itself is very safe, particular since the initial cut of the corneal flap can now be performed by a laser as well, rather than the surgical blade historically used. Using a laser to make the corneal flap cut is very accurate and reduces any chance of infection or complications.

I paid a total of $2900 or so two years ago. I consider it money well spent. My vision is now 20/15, better than I ever had with glasses.

The “halo effect” that n8tiveuit refers to is a temporary effect caused by the corneal flap being cut. The corneal flap will heal, and this effect goes away.

Regarding pmt’s comments: there are a wide variety of lasers used in modern society. To compare a high-power laser to a medically-eye treatmentision laser is rather uneducated.
