My eyesight was bad, and I wore contacts until my mid-20s, but it got too annoying and my eyes became too dry, so I got SMILE LASIK. I did it after hearing people around me who had LASIK or LASEK say it was like a whole new world, and it really is a whole new world.. It’s so comfortable, and since I no longer wear the contacts I used to wear every day, my eyes are much less dry.
