Ram Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 They cut a part of your cornea to alter the shape. I'm too much of a pussy to get that done to my eyes. Yea, they cut it, deep-fry it and then eat it with dessert. :headshake: Dude, stop making it sound like one of those Japanese snuff movies, ok? :giggle:

Texy Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 This type of refractive surgery has a small risk as it is involved creating a small flap in the cornea by removing the corneal tissue using the exciplex laser wavefront guided lasers usually gives out the best possible results as the eye tracking beam guides the laser beam to keep it on track and reduces the chances of complications. I am not going to lie to you but there is a fractional chance of complication and Lasik aberrations WaveLight Allegretto Wave with Allegro Analyzer is FDA approved and one of the best LASIK technology available out there. I would suggest a preliminary check up with a Retinal detachment specialist before you move forward with this decision as in some cases LASIK should be the least preferred vision correcting procedure Keep in mind, regardless of the success rate this technology has NOT been perfected by any means and still in the experimental phase so there will always be risks involved Loss of visual acuity, glare halos, night driving blurry vision. Unexpected Side effects including complications of keratectasia. If YOU did not have keratoconus or early signs of keratoconus before LASIK, there is a slight chance YOU might experience steepening of the cornea with vision loss after LASIK then YOU have ectasia which is basically the bulging of the cornea resulting in gradual loss of vision. In that case you might have to wear gas permeable contact lenses ^^^ the RED arrow points to a protrusion or ectasia developed post LASIK HOWEVER, -LASIK is arguably the most studied procedure existing today. -Since it's early FDA approval over 28 different other protocol, extensions of LASIK has been approved by FDA as well - 17 million laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis has been done in US alone - Approved in almost every country - 1st approval from FDA came in 1995...it's been 15 years since then and refractive surgery methods and technology has improved vastly reducing chances to negligible fraction END of the day it's YOUR decision, think twice, thrice before making that decision and study all facts before moving forward with the decision.
Cricketics Posted February 11, 2011 Author Posted February 11, 2011 Good post Texy..Very good actually in details. Don't know if i should feel happy about it or what..
Rajiv Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 Do it man, it's been 11 years for me and eyesight is rock solid. But I also drink lot of carrot juice I took my mother recently for Cataract surgery, sat in the operating room..now that was fascinating
Cricketics Posted February 11, 2011 Author Posted February 11, 2011 Ya man.. after world cup I will get this thing done man.

EnterTheVoid Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Personally, I wouldn't do it Tics. Glasses are an inconvenience when playing sports, and only some sports at that. With Laser Eye Surgery, there is a small risk of going blind. Once that happens, theres no going back. They cut a part of your cornea to alter the shape. I'm too much of a pussy to get that done to my eyes. Ditto, me too.
EnterTheVoid Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 scary sheet this and skydiving - two things that are tempting but I will never do. I have been thinking about skydiving since last year....and I am still thinking about it. I do not intend to die mid-air from a VERY VERY strong heart attack :giggle: Pussies. :headshake:
