    I just had it done 2 days ago. So far so good, no bruising or pain. My vision has already improved! I am using my drops and wearing my shades when I go out. Thanks for the video!

    Thanks for doing a thorough review of your lasik experience and cost. I want to get it done eventually but I'm nervous and I have a very high prescription (near sighted).

    👀 What's good Lexis Shantell. Glad to know your Lasik Surgery went well. Even with the battle scar on your eye, I'm very sure your vision will be mindblowing after it's healed.
    Thank you very much for sharing your journey with us here on RUclips. You just proved that you don't have to be afraid to go through with it, just very patient.
    Take care of yourself and stay blessed.
    Later.
    P.S. The shades you're wearing look really cool. Not a bad look at all.

    Hey Lexis. Thank you for sharing your experience. It really helped me a lot. I was afraid of getting LASIK but now I am not. I have been wearing glasses for 10 years and they are really uncomfortable. I think it is time to get LASIK now. I was actually planning to going to TLC Laser Eye Center in New York City. I am sure that you have heard about TLC Laser Eye Centers.

    So glad I found your video - we are nearly the same. I'm -2.00 in my right eye and -2.25 in my left. I have a slight astigmatism one of my eyes (forget which one).
    I've been researching this lately, and I've also been looking into the premium lens thing. I'm a lot older than you, so I think I am a good candidate for premium lens.
    We'll see. I'm glad you mentioned the price - it helps knowing the approximate price.

    My dad was 71 when he had his lasiks done n they were able to correct his to 20/20 it can be restored better but that be for the younger folks, I'm 51 and considering it, I know a girl who was restored to 15/10 in her late 40s but I am watching videos to see how the surgery goes a channel called bc I can had his dad n sister recording the whole surgery n it was pretty scary looking but when it was done, they got him right up n walking around so I was happy to see that n he have a 1week, 1 month n 3 months update n he was just loving his new life! So the more videos I watch, the more I'm considering it but I have to save another $1,250.00 so by spring!

      @LexisShantell  2 года назад

      Night driving was fine for me after that first few hours of healing! They should tell you everything you need to do so don’t worry! Also if your eyes itch in the first couple of weeks try not to scratch them at all. You can mess up the flap in your cornea that they create to do the surgery. Good luck !
