How LASIK Laser Eye Surgery Works!

[@HUNTENMASTA1337]

Excruciating but painless is very accurate. The whole surgery was like 4 minutes for me but it was a long 4 minutes. Uncomfortable as hell but I’m glad after 2 decades of having bad eyes I can wake up in the morning and just see now. Best decision I’ve made

[@WGasmss]

4 minutes but an eternity
I have a high fear of anything to do with my eyes
I really want the surgery but I’m so afraid those 4 minutes to me would feel like 4 years in hell

The only thing I saw were shadows hovering over my eye, I didn’t see or feel anything clearly or in particular.

[@SoWhatImASlytherin]

Once they put the suction on your vision pretty much goes black. Like if you press on your eye from the side with your finger for a few seconds and let it fade you’ll know exactly what I mean!

[@yobiecute]

I didn't see much, they just kept telling me "look straight into the green light". And that's all I see, shadows and a green dot. I could also feel they're doing something over my eyes but literally no pain. I actually felt they're putting water but based on this video, there was no water involved. Lol. And the whole surgery on both eyes took just 10 minutes. Acne surgery is worse. Lol

My dad had this done when he was younger, and the numbing medicine wore off before the surgery. So he went through the entire surgery with the pain and uncomfortability of something poking at your eye. It worked out perfectly though!

[@philiplubduck6107]

Odd as they usually do more drops right before (like here’s some more drops and then the part that makes bubbles happens. So even if the drops from ~5 minutes before wore off they have more. Now yes the pressure kinda felt like pain for they put a plastic molded cap on my eye rather than the metal in this video. For me they even said the numbing would last 30-45 minutes post surgery.

[@-Scarlett]

@@philiplubduck6107 I'm not exactly sure how it went because it was before I was born, but he said they did it in a large group and put the numbing stuff on everyone at once but didn't do everyone's surgery at once. So by the time it was my dad's turn the medicine had worn off. I'm not sure if that's true it's just what I was told.

[@katherine2000cl]

Yes! Got LASIK and it was one of the most worthwhile purchases I ever made! It is not painful - just uncomfortable. The MOST uncomfortable part about it is not being able to blink. If you try to hold your eyes open for 5 minutes without blinking, that’s what LASIK feels like. That’s the extent of the discomfort. Afterwards, your eyes just feel kind of gunky for the first 2-3 days similar to the feeling of having pink eye and you can’t rub them for the first week (I believe it was only a week?), but that’s it! My cousin went and had it done after she heard me rave about my results and she loves it as well. We are both quite nerdy girls who love reading but had horrible vision pre-LASIK and got tired of the constant expenses of buying new glasses/contacts/eye exams/etc. A huge money-saver long term and a time saver as well!

PRK is better. It shaves down that layer and the eye rebuilds it. But with Lasik, they cut open a flap and reshape it underneath, and that flap never closes and always has a chance to open back up.
For example, there was one case where someone was struck on the head by an object and their vision got blurry bc it reopened the flap, and this was many years after their surgery.
I think it was the army that would only allow their soldiers to get PRK too for this reason.
Or better yet, if doable, try to exercise your eyes first to improve your vision before considering surgery, which should always be the last option. Just look up "how to cure myopia naturally", or just watch some eye anatomy videos to get an idea of how your eyes work and what could go wrong, this way you will find a logical solution.

[@acelovesdiyschristopher7023]

How fast is it? Coz I've been wanting to do it but now I'm scared.

[@MrsJolene-]

@@acelovesdiyschristopher7023 try to practice looking with one eye, by which I mean, having both open, but ignoring what one sees.
I do it all the time, when the sun is in one eye, when I put contacts in, when I lose one contact,...
You start by focusing on your nose, each eye can see a side of it, then try to switch and focus on the side, look straight ahead but focus on something way left/right, something the other eye can't see.
I started doing it with one eye as one was lazy, but now I can switch dominant eyes. Very useful.

[@markrblx4732]

do you need to redo it every 10 years or something or does it last forever?

[@Bivora]

It takes about 10-15 mins total! I would recommend not doing a RUclips deep dive (lol) or you’ll freak yourself out! Before you can even have the procedure they do a total eye exam to make sure you’re a good candidate. You can definitely have “touch-ups” if your eyesight needs to be tweaked. I think I had 2 yrs where I could go back for free but didn’t need to. For some it will last forever, for others you may need readers as you age. It can be redone and if need be you can wear contacts again. These were all concerns I had. It’s been about 7 yrs and my vision is still perfect. I wore contacts and glasses for 20+ yrs and was just done!

I had cataract surgery with no sedation. I asked for just numbing drops. The doctor made my eye stay open for obvious reasons. I felt 0 pain. The surgery was over in 5 minutes, I'm not exaggerating. The Eye being made to stay open. Kind of makes people feel a lack of control. Anxiety is not pleasant no matter when you experience it.

[@JennMartinello]

I have DED and I'm going blind slowly... No Xiidra, Restasis, or other drops can fix this. I hope one day I can do this because seeing yourself go blind slowly is terrifying the worse it gets. It's going slow but in reality, it's fast as eyes are supposed to last a lifetime.

Having LASIK was the best money I ever spent on myself. It was completely painless and the surgery itself only takes minutes (the laser part specifically only takes seconds per eye). My eyesight was very bad beforehand and almost 20/20 right afterwards.
There was nothing excruciating about it. I had it done over 15 years ago, so I’m sure it’s only gotten better since.

[@Naeou]

Omg Dr. Youn don’t scare the people 😂 They didn’t have me watch what they were doing to my eye, don’t be scared of this you guys!!! Your eye is numb and you don’t actually know what they are doing to your eye, like you can’t even tell if they’ve started doing anything, so it’s easier not to panic! And then it’s over before you know it. I am a very anxious person, I don’t even drive, so when I decided to get lasik I was very scared…but it wasn’t scary at all, the only anxious part for me was a part where I was suppose look straight at a green dot light for like 10 seconds, and I was scared I was going to panic and look away and just ruin everything, but it was easy to get through. There is a smell of like burning hair that I can see being very unnerving for everyone, but for me it took me to the many memories of me burning my hair with hair tools 😂They gave me anti-anxiety meds (probs a sedative too, I took like 3 pills) and once they numbed my eye, it was super smooth from there in my opinion, the whole procedure including both eyes took less than 10 minutes, after I felt that worrying was a waste of time. It changed my quality of life, and I think everyone with vision issues who can should save and invest in correcting their vision for their quality of life.

[@whatisilyionlyknowipurpleyou]

What about the blinking situation? I know about the numbing, but the moisture in your eye develops, doesn't it bother you...Nothing about the surgery actually scares me other than the fact that I can't blink 😣

[@Naeou]

@@whatisilyionlyknowipurpleyou hey! So they have something holding your eyelids back, so you don’t have to worry about accidentally blinking, you can blink if you need to but your eyelid just won’t go down. And since your eye is numb you don’t feel eye moisture or lack of moisture. I forgot to mention that there is a burning smell, like burning hair, and that can be unnerving, but as a girl it’s a smell I’m used to lol

[@whatisilyionlyknowipurpleyou]

@@Naeou Oh I didn't know that? And as for the burning hair, doesn't sound like a problem, I've straighten my hair enough times to get used to it haha. Thanks for the info

[@Naeou]

@@whatisilyionlyknowipurpleyou for sure! For me the blinking would have been a source of panic and anxiety if I had to consciously be thinking “don’t blink! don’t blink! Don’t blink!”, but no one told me not to blink, no one told me to stop my eyelid from twitching, it wasn’t something I ended up being conscious of so in the end I have no memory of blinking, either me needing to or them needing me not to, ever being a problem :)

@@Naeou nice. I have one more question: I hear after you have lasik, it's best to bring someone with since you won't be able to property see for the rest of the day...Once they removed the flap...or reshape the eyeball, was it just lights out? or blurriness? couldn't see the door in front of you, thing?

You could get it again to fix the small refractive error afterwards but it's personal choice.

Morris Waxler, PhD, is the former head of the FDA branch responsible for reviewing data on LASIK between 1996 and 2000, and LASIK was approved for use with multiple devices on his watch. Recently, Dr. Waxler told the media that the FDA's approval of the procedure was a mistake.
