QUOTE(ThEmAGpiE @ Oct 20 2019, 12:56 AM) Do note that Clearvision only does TransPRK hence they would be definitely more positive on this procedure v lasik and smile. Hi, Depends on what you want - TransPRK maintains the most corneal strength among the 3 procedures and hence has the lowest risk of ectasia happening (Lasik being the highest risk at about 1% complication rate). In terms of visual outcome, TransPRK data not as good as Lasik and Smile (topography guided lasik having the best result among the 3) Is Clearvision the same as Advance Vision? |

They might wanna do monovision on you since you over 40 already. U need to get your eyes checked before u know which procedure is suitable for u.Kindly advise and thanks in advance. |

QUOTE(chloetsl @ Oct 20 2019, 11:34 PM) I did at TTDI. My eyes stable after 4.5 months. Now already 7.5 months. My left eye is undercorrected so I need -1 glasses to get perfect vision. My right eye is better than left eye but feeling like "-0.5 to 0.5" but it cannot be corrected by any glasses. I can still see clearly without glasses but cannot get perfect vision. The optomerist suggest me to wait for another 3 months and come back to follow up. Both my eyes physically look perfect and no infection. |

Dear all,
My GF just did her REX lasik at Optimax Sunway last Friday. She actually did her eye check up and test in Ipoh. However, the only clinic available to do REX is the one in Optimax Sunway. Total Price is Rm3806 Price per eye - Rm 1800 Medication - 206 At this promotion price, it is not lifetime warranty. Meaning if in the future your eyes power increases, future lasik will cost RM900+ Future check up will cost RM100 each. 1st day free, 3rd day free, 7th day onward is RM100 each Meaning, 7th day - Rm100 1 month -Rm100 3 month -Rm100 6 month -Rm100 1 year - Rm100 Annually - Rm100 It seems that annual eye check up is compulsory according to the T&C. |

Thanks Hi, Just went for 4th(5th) day check up yesterday, doctor took out the old contact lens to check on the eye and reinsert a new contact lens once established that the cornea skin are not fully healed. Spent extra rm60 for the lens.It is the same for PRK of any kind. Extreme sensitive to light, she could not stand any sort of light at all, mentioned that her eyes became painful and will be watery. Vision is still blur as contact lens are still in place. Might be better after it is taken off. |

I did femto with Dr. Ainur at early August after few months regular visit since I got severe dry eyes issue and test result is not good for dr to approve for lasik.
Special thanks to jialat for his recommendation. Dr Ainur is very caring, he spend time to explain in details to me. Also dr keep remind that I can always call to ask if any issue arise or I got anything need clarification from him. Prepare a question list and Dr will reply nicely. On the first visit he already give me my result in hard copy and straightaway tell me I can go for second opinion from other dr, so there is not hard-sell at all. Dr keep remind me this is not a must for me to perform lasik, and he didn't give green light before my last check at end of July (my first visit at March, I did pay visit in 1-2 month frequency). But I am keen to do lasik so this post is here So far my vision is clear 6/6 and my dry eyes issue improve A LOT. No more allergic also ( my eye lids are allergic during first visit). Pricing : 7.5k and support 12-month installment by credit card |
