This is the Science Friday (National Public Radio) video about LASIK eye surgery. The funny thing about this video is that the narrator, who is probably also the producer, is a lot more nervous about LASIK laser vision correction than the patient himself. He is cool as a cucumber, I had LASIK myself, didn't think it was a big deal and now I see fantastic. The video features Steven Vale, M.D., medical director of Acuity Laser Eye & Vision Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Dr. Vale is one of the most well-respected and experienced Lasik surgeons in the world. Dr. Vale has performed over 21,000 laser vision correction surgeries. Dr. Vale's ability and experience really comes out in this otherwise realistic and detailed glimpse at the world of laser vision correction surgery.

I'm thinking of taking LASIK when I'm older. Maybe when I'm around my 30s. I'm only 14 right now so I don't have to really worry about it. Hopefully LASIK will improve in the future and be more reliable.
My only question is that is there ANY pain? No pain at all? Just looking at this makes my eyes dry and makes me feel sick.
haha terrible graphics on the video, but otherwise very informative and helpful. My surgery's a week away and my surgeon is similarly well qualified - can't wait!!
To anyone considering it, go for your consultation. If they're as reputable and honest as where I'm going then they'll cover all the questions being asked in these comments that Proc is answering very well.
