Antonio Kala Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 @beezmans why do the surgery? Glasses work perfect for when i want to see great and when I want to not see i just remove them. what's good about seeing perfectly all the time? not worth in my opinion.

What's the point of fixing a torn acl? When you want to walk put your brace on, and when you want to be handicap take your brace off? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's different my friend because you will always want to walk, with seeing, sometimes you are just tired of seeing all day and night and want a break, you can take your glasses and still see a little but not have to focus on what you see.

It was a little uncomfortable, but definitely worth it 100%. I am even terrible with things getting close to my eyes. A eye doctor could not even put contacts in my eyes, thats how bad I am. So if I can do it, anyone should be able to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your eye is clamped open, sounds painful, but it is not. I had to move machines halfway though the process. One cuts the eye and the other is the laser. You just have to look at the dot/forward and that is it. Just have to try and stay calm (they gave me stress balls to squeeze, which helped), you will lose vision in your eye for for like 30 seconds after they cut it. It freaked me out a little bit, but made it out with better than 20/20 vision, so worth it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
