u can choose to read what u want to know about LASIK eye surgery.

its all about the latest updates that u cant find in the net coz they r from medical journals.

my friend is a ophthalmo student, who told me that his lecturer (an eye specialist in TUN HUSSIEN ONN) doesnt recommend LASIK as no 1 really knows whats the side effects 20 years later after u have it done.

btw, have u seen any eye specialist have got lasik done on their own eyes?

well, to be honest, i myself is very interested to have it, but reading all the medical reviews in OPTOMETRY UPDATES make me think twice.

to thread starter : pls keep us updated once u got ur eyes done.

cheers

any of you are on dry eye treatment now, after the lasik?

can u imagine when those post-lasik ppl hit age 50 and above when dry eye come into play, they will have dry eye syndrome for sure and not many ophthalmologists have mentioned this to their patients, its very unethical.

well, according to what i learn and have seen in clinic all this time show almost all have dry eye when turn 50, dry eye is part of aging process.

i still get returning customers from post lasik for contact lens due to residual refractive error that enhancement failed to remove. i supply to some lasik centers too, some procedures need bandage lens after surgery, look ard in the treatment room u will find purevision lens. i gain many customers from lasik centers, friends work in there

i recommend my contact lens customers for lasik coz i gain commission, much better profit than selling cheap lens.

u meant residual refractive error, no specific age, i think its very much depend on optom and ophthalmologist skills who check the refractive error b4 op, and also the patient's corneal thickness.

vista also giving very good commission for referral.

if ur refractive error not very high, then just stick to glasses lor, spectacle help u to block wind and dust

Just in case any of you know someone that has bad or worse vision after LASIK or any surgery, please let me know. I know an optometrist who specialized in POST LASIK or POST EYE SURGERY Lens which can help quite tremendously in reducing glare and halo.

2-3 % failure rate

Optometrists from optimax and vista told me that, best is call their centre to confirm.

not blind, just vision is worse than before surgery. never heard of blindness after LASIK yet.

taiwan stops LASIK.

according to an insider news, there is 1 popular centre getting a few lawyer letters today itself.

malaysia, i dont know about taiwan.

Eye specialists in Klang medical centre know about this taiwan news too.

try google translator.

Some do get worse vision after LASIK for few days, but if its persisted for more than 2 weeks, then thats very bad. All the best for your eyes and pm me if you need recommendation for post LASIK lens fitter. take care.

If anyone wants discount on Optimax perliminary test and refractive surgery, just send me a message or email me, I will get my optometrist to send you a referral letter. They will get you the most experience surgeon to do it for you.

Its 1 of the options available, better get the preliminary test 1st and they will inform you the options you have after the check.


No charges, just give me your details (name, hp, birth date, email) and they will pos you the referral letter free of charge.

Better wait for feedback from customer, you have only 1 pair of eye.
