NOT FOR THE WEAK! Or if you have a thing about eyes....

I went in for LASEK (not LASIK) surgery on April 30th, 2010 with an extremely high prescription and astigmatism. It was performed by Dr. Emil Chynn at Park Avenue Laser Vision in NY, NY and he did an amazing job! 3 months later, I have 20/20 vision and it keeps getting better!

Feel free to ask me or the folks a PALV any questions :)

  • does laser surgery gives you 20/20 vision?

  • @gurabitybul It gave me 20/20 vision but I suppose it's dependent on your own vision.

  • What was recovery like? how long did it take before you could drive? How long was it before it stopped hurting?

  • @arilovegillesforever I don't drive so I couldn't tell you that really - but I was able to go to work and walk around etc after 5 days (3 recovery, 2 to give my vision a chance to improve). It didn't actually hurt at all - it was just a bit dry so I kept my eyes shut most of the time for the first 3 days.

  • No pain - just a bit of dryness but I didn't feel a thing!

  • Nope, no cutting or suctioning!

  • @lightstarangel Thanks for getting back to me. I was able to get LASIK and this is my first day of recovery and I'm already comfortable enough to sit i front of a computer (dimmed, that is) and I'm wowed by how clearly I can see already. Thanks for sharing :)

  • Did it hurt a lot

  • Wow! So this didn't invole any suctioning the eye or cutting unlike LASIK?

  • My prescription was pretty awful and I was near-sighted- around 8.50 in one eye, 6.50 in the other with astigmatism. Yes, at the end, they put a bandage contact on the eye to protect it as the epithelium heals.
