I was looking into Lasik eye surgery last night and the side effects were like:

• Dry eye

• Suicide

Decided sort of impulsively to get LASIK next Monday lol. I’ve been thinking about it for a while but made a same day appointment for a consultation and asked for the soonest available surgery slot. This place is a freaking institution - they do sooooo many LASIK surgeries, so that makes me feel better that it’s literally so routine. They have really good reviews but a part of me was like is it insane to do this??? Guess we’ll find out lol.

Tomorrow I'll have LASIK eye surgery, and I'll not be able to use a computer, phone and look at bright light for several days. It will be a pity not to see posts from mutuals and friends, communicate and draw new silly art, but this is a necessary measure.

See you (HA) guys next week! ✌️

I’m getting a new set of eyeballs today lol

No more glasses only laser vision. That’s what lasik is right?

Nobody wears glasses to just see anymore. LASIK replaced that idea. Now they are just a fashion accoutrements. Because glam never takes a day off.

not to get emotional on main but all I want for my birthday next month is to have perfect vision 🥲

I don't qualify for LASIK bc my prescription is so high (-10 L -12 R and astigmatism on top of that) so my only option is ICL, which is significantly more expensive. LASIK costs around 1000-4000 USD per eye. ICL is 3500- 5000 USD per eye. and since it's considered cosmetic my insurance won't copay.

I'm 22 - almost 23 years old. I've had glasses since I was 3. my eye doctor told my mom I had the worst eyes on a 3 year old he's ever seen. he even told her there was a good chance I'd be blind before I turned 18. I'm so glad I didn't. I don't even know what I would do if I went blind...

my current financial situation isn't the best. partly my fault for quitting my second job and putting way too many bill payments on a credit card. partly for not having any financial support from family. partly for instead of going to college I moved out of my mom's shitty roach infested trailer and into a shared apartment with a roommate who leeched off of me instead of contributing anything.

like I know I don't have it the worst. I'm not homeless. I still can see with glasses. my life is ok considering the state of the world.

I just want to be able to wake up and see. to not have glasses that irritate the bridge of my nose. to not have to go on rollercoasters with my glasses in my pocket and not being able to see anything. to not be afraid of going swimming because my glasses are in a bag on a chair and not on my face. to be able to wear sunglasses comfortably so the UV rays don't make my vision worse (I'm high risk for macular degeneration and retinal detachment.) even applying makeup is impossible unless I climb onto the bathroom sink, and don't even get me started on shaving in the shower. it's these little things people take for granted, when they buy the plastic lensed glasses frames as accessories and colored contact lenses to make their eyes red or purple or gold. I didn't get a choice not to need glasses or contacts. I just want to have the option of those things without spending a fortune on getting them in my prescription, if that's even possible to start with.

like. dude. what do I do at this point?

my last pre-surgery consultation was today and my surgeon says my eyes are healthy and good for the laserrrrr!!

so this time next week, all being well, the surgery will be over and i will finally have all seeing eyes. im getting excited now...this feels like a dream coming true.

#laser eye surgery #its happening #omg #my prescription is -6.25 in both eyes btw...im so blind #short sighted #lasik

Are you near-sighted or far-sighted? Do you need glasses all the time in order to see? Ahh, I hope you get amazing results from lasik! I’ve never really looked into it, but is there a recovery time for lasik?

i'm near-sighted! i do use glasses all the time, though my prescription really isn't terrible. i think both my eyes were somewhere around 20/50 and my left eye also had astigmatism. i went for a free 90 minute consultation where they took all these measurements and determined that i was a good candidate, though my cornea is a little thin.

i went in yesterday morning and they tested my eyesight again, gave me valium and numbing eye drops, and then i was brought in to the OR. it was VERY quick - three minutes per eye. my surgeon was amazing - he was sooo nice and explained everything that was happening. there was a kind of scary part where for about 10 seconds i couldn't see anything at all in the eye they were lasering, but he counted down until i would be able to see again. there was a part where they were lasering part of the cornea and it smelled like burning hair, but it was pretty brief and not awful.

my eyes felt very uncomfortable and dry but it was manageable. they gave me "comfort drops" which basically numbed my eyes. i could use them as much as i wanted yesterday and it definitely helped the pain. there are two other eyedrops i use four times a day for a week and then twice a day for a week and i can use artificial tears liberally. when i got home, i put on a cold compress and took a long nap. eyes were dry and uncomfortable throughout the rest of the day. sometimes i couldn't even open them bc of light sensitivity. this morning i woke up and they felt dry, but now at midday they don't feel dry at all so the eyedrops are really good! i even was able to drive to my follow up appt which felt crazy. when i got out of the car and saw the trees in the parking lot, i started laughing bc i could see individual leaves without my glasses!! 24 hours out i would highly recommend this procedure if you're a good candidate!
