Show us what failed.
If it really failed & due to negligent, it will be very easy to get a good lawyer.
Lawyers know when they have a case.
& there are many independent hospitals u can go to.
If u don't trust them here, go overseas. They have nothing to lose by telling the truth.

As always, all surgeries have risks & can fail.
But not all failures are attributed to negligent. Well most are not.

wow!
10mm is super large.
Mine with 7mm already he said large enough.
I do notice some glare after the surgery (not sure if it is there before the surgery & I didn't notice it) but I got used to it & it doesn't bother me at all.

depends on your corneal thickness.
If thick enough, more than -10.00 also can.

yeah but not sure about the -10.00 not suitable.
Easy enough. Just consult the doc. If he said can do, then do it. If not, just agree with the specialist & ask for alternatives.

For me, if I'm looking for it, i can see the glare.
I got used to it & it doesn't bother me a bit even while driving in the night.
I actually had some glare even before the surgery & before the doc told me about it, I didn't even notice it.

Personally, I think the glare & halo issue is exaggerated.

& u believe everything the internet says

Well when something is way too scary.. it might just be a conspiracy theory..which I always ignore.
Look for the facts 1st of course.
Getting 2nd opinion from professional is good too

technically, it is called microkeratome. It vibrates ultrasonically to cut.
It is reliable enough. But all-laser systems are even more consistent.
Reducing the risk of human error to absolute minimum.

Vista does not use microkeratome anymore.
Not sure about other places.

Doing lasik in Malaysia is considered pretty good already.
It is one of our health tourism. Cheaper than many developed countries but no compromise. Top quality

If u want peace of mind, take the NASA iLasik at Vista RM10k (not sure if it is reduced already) like I do.
Lower priced packages most likely will suit you enough.
But I just like the fact that it is recognized for US military use.
Personal opinion. Professionally, the cheapest package that the doctor recommend will suffice

If there is sufficient proof, can just disclose to everyone.

u must have some kind of medical report on this.
Mind posting here? We'd like to see as well.
Black-out any personal details.

Never had that issue.
I can sit online 15 hour straight no problem.
Everybody is different.
Give it some more time.

If afraid don't do it.
Do more research & get over your fear.
Then do it.

You should fear driving on the road more than lasik damaging your eyes.
Statistics.

None that I know of.
Even if there is, the difference will be very insignificant over a very long time.
Lasik gives a very significant improvement that a non-educated superstitious person will call it black magic

It will be annoying if i have to take flight everytime i want to go somewhere.
As annoying as having to find my glasses or taking off my contacts

Lasik is a necessity for me.
Depends of people's priority.
The risk is low enough that it is a no brainer for me.

Even -10.00 can do if all criteria are met.
Go for the test & the doc will recommend accordingly.
We can't diagnose anything online.

Agreed.

But how many doctors do u see not wearing glasses? Did u ask everyone if they did lasik or wear contacts?

It really is worth the risk for me.
Why?

I have a large pupil & full sun hurts my eyes. People will see me driving with my eyes closed coz I can barely open my eyes. Problem for me to drive during noon. Need sunglasses. Can't find suitable prescription shades. Not to mention expensive. Now I can buy any shades that I want. 1 problem solved.

I need to wear protection goggles while doing my work. Cumbersome to wear with glasses. Every little efficiency I gain is money to me. 2 problems solved.

Don't tell me to wear contacts.
& contact lenses are statistically more dangerous than lasik & much more cumbersome for me.

Also other small reasons.
Save money in the long term.
Convenient.
Can swim without being practically blind.
Making my friends jealous many are saving for lasik now
Smudges on the glass is annoying.

Bottom line, prescription glasses annoys me enough for me to take the risk

& another thing to add, many of us have no idea how busy certain professionals are. Many have barely enough time to iron their clothes.
Lasik specialist usually ask for 1 or 2 week for recovery to normal vision (I only need 3 days).
That amount of time is unacceptable for some. Doctors can't simply ask for 2 weeks leave for an elective surgery. Specialists need to consider if they are urgently needed during the healing period which any honorable doctors would declare themselves unfit for duty.
I did this during my long semester break. There is no way I'm going to do this while working.

That depends.
Everyone differs.
My mom who is diabetic, takes about 1 week to be confident enough.
For me, the next day, I drove alone for the review session. Wearing sunglasses of course.
My eyes were very sensitive for a few days to bright light though which was expected.

If your work doesn't involve anything that can harm yourself or others, may be ok.
Advisable to allow 1 week just in case.

Just ready someone to drive you.

You will probably die by slipping in your bathroom before that ever has a chance of happening.

There is definitely some technical difference & custom lasik theoretically better.
& no doubt the centres are using them for marketing.
How gimmicky & how significant is the difference, only proper peer reviewed studies can tell.
I didn't have time to look for the papers yet.

It seems that most that did the conventional lasik are satisfied with it.
Otherwise the centers won't keep offering them.
However, nobody can really tell the difference between the methods unless someone use different systems for each eye
