    Do you recommend laser eye surgery if you have astigmatism?

    • @EpochUnlocked
      @EpochUnlocked 4 года назад

      I don't think that will help since it's the whole eyeball that's not the right shape.

      My optometrist has suggested it to me before. I just wanted to know what another optometrist might think about it. I know that it can be done. They do the lens on the eye not the whole eye

    Hello pretty Dr
    Question: the astigmatism can be corrected with an eye surgery?

      I had Lasik in 2004 and it corrected my astigmatism and myopia vision, here it is 2020 and I had to get eye exam and once again, glasses. The money spent on LASIK was well worth it, now I’m older & don’t do sports like I did when younger. If you can afford lasik, I’d go for it.

    Could you please explain. This to Drs. Some people who can't see except straightforward if you look sideways your preparation it's blurry you more than likely need a lens that is perfectly flat I don't know why I can't get you people to understand that so I'm wearing a pair of glasses it's not right some people

  • @justinwilson2595
    @justinwilson2595 2 года назад

    I have often thought about becoming and optometrist. To help people like myself. But in good faith I never could. Because of how bad my own vision is.i can't go to a box store or online for my lenses I have to go to a true optometrist who use high end optics manufacturers. Big box stores Lens crafters Walmart places like that can't get my lenses can't help me. I've worn glasses since I was 3yrs old. Even in this day and age. If I have contacts they are hard glass lenses. Even with every surgery possible for my eyes. I will still need glasses or contacts. I like your video and thank you for explaing things for others. Also a funny story. Last time at my optometrist as he and I were walking out. He realized and said wow you are my oldest patent. All of his staff and even the people in the waiting room looked at him funny. Then he explained. Not the oldest in age but the patient I've had the longest. I met him in 1983 when he was 3yrs old and he has stuck with me ever since. Love my DR Jones! Almost 40yrs now. Sadly when he retires I'm hosed. Can't find anyone within 250 miles. That can possibly help. Because everyone is going the cheap and easy route. I've been to over 500 optometrist and box stores with just my Rx and asked can you do it or get them. Everyone has said no we can't help you.

    No matter what type of glasses I get or what eye doctor I go to the astigmatism in my right eye can never be corrected completely is this common? there's always a slight blur in that eye regardless of what type of glasses should I get. I'm 67 by the way and I am not diabetic but I have controlled high blood pressure.

    I have astigmatism. I knew I needed glasses. The Dr. didn't want to let me know I need +1.25. Then the rep wanted to give progressive lenses that I don't need just so I leave them on.

    Basically do not get pink eye. My mother had issue with teaching us kids about pets in the 🏠. Also shutting the bathroom door so the critters did not drink out of the toilet. Pink eye will bend your pupil. Also them cats would crap under the bed. Yes we crawled it till we figured out what was their. As soon as we cleaned it they would poo in it again. Cleaned like 6 times and then gave up. As a kid. So glad we have the net now. Yep after time we kept them cats out. Yes our clothes smelled like 🐈 sh;+! So please do not do this to your kids.

    Dr.… I think your answer on the causes of astigmatism Was incomplete, unless you were doing it for simplicity, you failed to include lenticular astigmatism, which even if the cornea is spherical as you undoubtedly know, can result in an Astigmatic condition .........You’re welcome.…P.S. I read a lot.…
