    Just got the surgery done yesterday. the only pain was getting the ring on the eye. And it wasn’t even really pain just pressure. The cutting and the laser you don’t feel at all. Just go home and nap for four hours after and you’ll have zero pain. It’s been 24 hours and I’m already seeing at almost 20/20. Greatest decision of my life

      I’m getting lasik soon. It cost about $3888 SGD with an additional cost of cross linking $1117 SGD. The procedure my doctor recommended is completely by laser. No blade or sharp objects will be used.

Guys, let me tell you, the video is as accurate as it is misleading because it makes the entire procedure look painful but it's faaar from it. You don't feel any pain AT ALL. You might feel uncomfortable because of that thing the doctor puts in your eyelids in order to not blink, but there's no pain. I repeat, there's no pain. Zero. Nada.

Honestly, it was more painful to watch it than feel any physical pain, but you’ll come around that.

      @The king of Earth I’m happy to share my experience with you. They use a piece of equipment to keep you from blinking. So you’re eye would be wide open and you can’t blink even when you want to. I was able to move my eyeball around but they ask you to look straight into a light while they shave your eyeball. Then they proceed with the laser. The procedure was easy and fast. Just breathe and relax and it’ll be over before you know it. Oh and it didn’t hurt all that much at all.
      I did mine with LASIK plus located in Utah. And now I have a vision even better than 20/20 according to the doctors. It was worth it for me and I hope you come to a decision that makes you happy. After all your vision determines most of you life quality.

      I'm not a doctor and I haven't gotten LASIK (i plan to) but I really doubt it hurts, especially since they numb your eye to the point where you can barely see and can't move it, so that the procedure goes flawlessly. I kinda get why people are scared of it but they have to realize that modern science is so incredibly advanced we can cut into our own eyes and fix them without feeling even a bit of pain.

I do still occasionally get "artifacts" from having worn glasses and contacts for decades and suddenly not needing them, like I'll freak out for a second because I'll reach over and can't find my glasses... old habits die hard. Lasik changed my life.
    For the surgery itself, it was "look at the blinking lights (15-20 seconds elapses). Ok now don't freak out because you're going to go blind for about 15 seconds." Then I had perfect vision.

But then I found a doctor who helped me and even my vision got -7, my eyes were in a very good condition. I am very thankful to her that my vision didn't get lower than that.

    I got this done when I was 18, i was nervous but it looks worse than it really is. It felt a bit uncomfortable sure but it didn’t hurt, and it was so quick. I don’t regret getting it at all, I’m 20 now and I love my vision✨

    And after surgery, doctors informed my mom that he was disturbing us so much , difficult to deal with him 😀😂

    I had this done after many years of dithering. I am short sighted.
    Carried out to one eye only and I can see better than 20/20.
    I experienced quite intense pain for half a day which is unusual and after that, the pain went away and was just sore. My vision stabilised within 2 to 3 weeks.
    I don't wear glasses and I should have done it many years ago.
    My only problems are depth perception is a little off. I play tennis and soccer, so it's not much of a problem. I now can swim and kite surf no glasses seeing everything.
    At AUS$1500, it was a bargain.

    Best decision of my life. At first it’s super scary when they cut 20% of the tip of my eyelid, but they gave me Valium to help me stay calm and relaxed. Procedure took about 15 minutes for both eyes. Was able to see perfect the next day

      RaNex no, I’ve heard that you should do it again like 10 years later. I’ve also heard that when a woman has a baby, her sight gets kinda blurry again
