I kept putting it off, saying I would do LASIK someday... Then I decided to go after hearing that the price of the one-day lenses I usually used was going up, and I made an eye exam appointment. I booked it after seeing a YouTube video showing the surgeon personally operating on their daughter. I had the surgery right after the eye exam, and since my pupils were large, I was told I would have glare at night, so I went ahead with the surgery. After the surgery, I could see without glasses in just one day, and I went around marveling like a blind man who had just opened his eyes. I kept thinking, why did I only do this now, I should have done it earlier, and regretted waiting. Even if side effects appear and I end up wearing glasses again in 10 years, I would still be satisfied...

Orthodontic Reviews@ortho-reviewFeb 4 5-Year LASIK Review
The place I went to was a factory-style clinic, so the surgery seems to have finished in under 30 minutes haha. There was a smell like grilling squid, so I was pretty nervous during the surgery, but looking back now, 5 years later, I am…
Orthodontic Reviews@ortho-reviewFeb 4 LASEK review
When I was in the military, I took leave and got examined, then had surgery the very next day. The exams took a really long time and there were a lot of them. Since they used anesthesia for the surgery, it didn't hurt. But the first week…
Orthodontic Reviews@ortho-reviewFeb 4 Smile LASIK review
The price was 230 for Smile LASIK plus 30 for the myopia regression prevention medication, for a total of 260. I was very satisfied with the result. I've worn glasses since I was little so I'm used to them, but still, not wearing glasses…
