Hi everyone, I wrote in about a month ago about my husband who had developed corneal wrinkles on one eye and came out with eye sight that could not even be ...
If you get glasses with anti glare coating (what some of you might have had before) you may notice some improvement. Quite a few of the people that I worked...
Funny you mention the different vision with different lighting. I don't seem to have a problem and can adjust quickly from total darkness to bright light and...
WOW, That's great that your husband was able to find someone to get rid of the wrinkle. I am having a hard time with the little regression I've had, can't...
In a message dated 3/3/02 9:21:12 PM Eastern Standard Time, Emmytime@... ... He has to wait about 6 months for it to completely heal and then can have it ...
I have read that some people have trouble with dim lighting up to 9 months after (don't remember *where* I read that). But I don't think it's a wide spread...
Drink lots of water, use artificial tears and put the goopy gel in your eyes at night. The dryness very well could be the reason for your vision to be off!...
14 months out and still having vision problems! Now I'm wondering if they aren't rushing my enhancement! It's only been three months for me. Sometimes though...
What is weird for me is that I always measure at 20/20 ... so that part hasn't changed. I'll take Jess's advice and use drops and get more fluids to see if...
After the clinic rescheduled me, I was a little depressed. in fact, I keep expecting to be rescheduled again. But if all goes well, Next Wednesday is my...
... Bad News!! Yahoo Groups will be down from March 15th until March 18th for more maintenence! So in light of this crappy news, next weekend will be rather...
What they are doing is "migrating/merging" Yahoo Groups and Yahoo Clubs. I have been on as many as 24 Groups and 15 Clubs at the same time. I've unsubscribed...
Roger, There shouldn't be any reason why you won't feel like working on your car this weekend. I had my LASIK done on a Thursday and was doing everything...
I've got 4 pairs of goggles (big enough to fit even the glasses I wore in the 80s...), and 2 pair of "sports" style safety glasses. I just retired frm the...
Roger, I have a low pain tolerance above the neck and honestly there was NO pain. A little (very) grittiness during the first four hours but I was reading...
Cool. Because we live 250 miles from where this is being done, I was a bit concerned that I wouldn't be wanting to join the family running around in San Diego...
They are moving all "clubs" to "groups" which will supposedly improve things .... I wonder if the down time is related to that? Hopefully it'll all go...
DITTO... the worst part was a slight discomfort during the procedure... I have a low pain threshold, too. Afterwards... no pain ... just use lots & lots and...
Hello everyone, I live in Europe and just joined the group because I'm looking for information. My husband has a strong myopia (minus 17), and doctors have...
Due to thickness of the cornea, LASIK can only correct to -12. During my discussion with my surgeon yesterday, he did discuss the procedure you are talking...
Subsequent to my surgery on 1/18, my right eye is not so good for close vision as my left eye. I find that unusual since I thought one's near vision is...
Near vision is affected as well because you are changing the contour of the cornea. It might be as simple as that one eye was overcorrected and would need a...
I should remember that.... I, too, had a fear of "what if I don't have my glasses"... knowing that I could not function (big E disappeared for me). Living in...
Hehe, I never even thought about an earthquake scenario... And I live right near a desert fault line... I too live in Cali... I always worried when I was on...
The first words out of the little 20-something kid who did my initial exam were "You know you will probably need reading glasses after the procedure - at least...
