Though the thought of not having to wear glasses anymore gets me excited, it is also a scary thing. I don’t quite like the idea of a laser shining into my eye which is what happens when you get LASIK eye surgery.
I guess for myself, I needed to find out whether or not the LASIK risks were worth the benefits. Sure, I would like to get rid of my glasses just like everyone else, but what if something were to go wrong, I would hope that the problem wouldn’t be catastrophic.
One of my main concerns about the whole procedure is that it doesn’t fully correct my vision and that I would still have to wear corrective lenses or glasses. According to some of the LASIK side effects I have read about, that is a distinct possibility.
It doesn’t help that I am really picky about my vision, and if it even changes a little, I need to change my prescription lenses. I think that I might go in to talk to a specialist before I get the surgery done - I need all the answers before I go through with it.
