I kept putting it off and finally got vision correction surgery around this time last year I didn’t do it because I wanted to.. I did it because my eyes couldn’t tolerate contact lenses anymore, so I had no choice I had been living without even knowing what SMILE LASIK was, but someone I know had it done at this place and said it was good and painless, so I booked right away without doing much research It was expensive That was when I first realized vision correction surgery could be this expensive But I figured there must be a reason it’s expensive lol I booked a same-day exam and surgery without thinking much (I mistakenly thought there would be nothing wrong with my eyes) I went in on the surgery date, and then, what do you know Retinal degeneration was progressing (almost right before detachment???).. The doctor in charge was a woman She talked as if it wasn’t extremely serious, so I said I wanted to do LASIK first and then get retinal treatment, but she said that wasn’t allowed and that I absolutely had to treat the retina first So they zapped it with laser right away lololol And 4 days later, I had LASIK At the final exam, both eyes came out 1.5 I think the final exam was around the end of last year? Now I feel like it may have dropped a little? but I’m not really sure Maybe it’s because I have no choice but to look at the computer all day So I work wearing blue-light-blocking glasses Anyway, I really like it. I recommend this place
