Hi, i'm thinking of doing the all-laser lasik treatment in optimax. but i would like to know is there any significant difference between custom and conventional method or izzit just a marketing gimmick, and is it worth putting in extra 2k for the custom option (which they claim has better results) also, if anyone of u guys that have done conventional lasik treatment (disregarding the different centers) what are your results and are you guys happy with it, especially the night visions. many thanks.

Just got myself a preliminary report from optimax today. their recommendation for my right eye (-8.0) is all-laser lasik (bladeless) and left eye (-5.0) is lasik (with microkeratome device). the different procedure for the 2 eyes is due to the fact that my right eye has higher power and needed to remove more cornea from my eyeball, hence the tissue saving procedure of all-laser lasik. I concluded with the budget i have, i will go ahead with the recommendation of theirs, and as well as add on a custom wavefront thingy for both procedure. what do you guys think about this? many thanks again.

yea sure i can quote u, but its rm200 for u. can we share half 100 / 100 instead? maybe u can pm me of ur IC so they can detect u better?? i am going to do it in kuching . pm me ur hp if possible.. I am doing lasik xp Microkeratome on both eye. both degree 3.25 . each cost rm3188, deduct 200 for paying cash and another 200 for new year promotion, Oh yea.. mine is custom not conventional,  i wouldnt want to risk to get conventional, afraid of night time problem. Everything is a risk, just make sure after lasik i dont accidentally rub my eye later cause flap wrinkles and im doom.

Yeah, true, rubbing it during the night is definitely a no-no. anyway, i've no problem with splitting the discount cash. just contact me at chowpaklun@gmail.com and we'll arrange from there onwards.

Btw, I've decided to do the all-laser custom lasic. which cost about 3688/eye. anyway, the reason i chose to do it this coming saturday is because they are having an open-day on that day which they will have special promotions. i got a 200/eye discount for my treatment. i believe that they're having open day nationwide. just visit their website or call in.
