Keperluan Asas - The need to survive.

If we can't live without it (like food, car, cloth), then it become necessary...
If lasik necessary? do your job require u to do lasik (what job is that anyway??)? Can glasses solve my problem?
The answer is straight forward.

Lasik is consider part of "cosmetic surgery" - one can live without. It may enhance our life for a short term but the implication can cause u much more in the future.

Why majority of doctors still wearing glasses? it imply something, isn't it? They don't believe in the technology? I had a chance to ask a surgeon and he told me, i don't risk my eye because during operation, i can't make a simple mistake. Pls check out how many surgeon in hospital wear glasses, they will tell u the same thing. This imply, the technology isn't as safe as u think, and the long term complication may cause a surgeon to lost his job if he can't perform well in operation.

We have only one pair of eye and it cannot regrow back.
"Money can't buy back my vision", i like this phrase.

10 years ago if u visit a lasik doctor they would tell u the risk is low, until now ppl talk bad about blade lasik..bla bla bla, and with all the victom testimonial published, then ppl start talking about all-laser, intralasik..etc. <- another cycle has started, and 10 years later, i believe there will be lots of victims testimonial due to unnecessary surgery.

the issue on lasik is long term, perhaps not so "obvious" in short term. we may be happy that we get a 0-0 after surgery, but u'll never know what's await u in next 5-10 years. Each person can do 1 time lasik only, as per recommendation by doctor. Whatever warranty they give u is a bullshit, they can't warranty u non-glasses for the entire life (if any doctor say this, tell me..lol). End of the day, they will still give you glasses, regardless how rich u r.

So what really worth it for you to take on lasik? beauty? trouble of finding glasses? is it worth the risk? u ask urself, as u r the one spending money
