I had LASEK surgery 8 years ago, and at that time my vision was really bad -11...... Most hospitals said they couldn't do the surgery, and because I also had astigmatism, they said it would be a very difficult surgery... On top of that, because I had worn lenses for over 10 years, the surface was very scratched, and one hospital even said we should treat that first and then do the surgery After going around to 5 places and feeling discouraged, I heard through an acquaintance that someone they knew also had very poor vision but had surgery and the outcome was good, so I went through that acquaintance's introduction.. At the time, in my mind... I mainly looked at things like surgical equipment + the doctor's hand skills + hospital aftercare? those kinds of parts....... So I went just thinking I would at least get an exam, and after the exam, that director said it would not be easy but that they could do it They showed me the surgery photos and progress of my acquaintance's acquaintance (the acquaintance whose vision was as bad as mine haha), so I ended up having surgery there
After making the rounds and going to hospital consultations, one doctor seemed so upright? almost enough to appear on a famous-doctor program... But maybe they had no business skills... the outdated facilities... and the fact that the equipment wasn't the latest bothered me.. Another place boasted the latest machines and flashy facilities, and there were tons of clients waiting, but there were also places that just seemed busy pushing people through... My eyes were a special case, so it took a long time to find a place.
You do eye tests before consultation, right? At that time, I checked and asked about the internal facilities and whether the machine I would be operated on was actually at that hospital hahaha Anyway, after that I had the surgery successfully and my vision came out to 1.5, so I was so happy I was honestly embarrassed to even show my thick round glasses to my husband, but it was a surgery I'm so glad I did
