QUOTE(Adriano_64 @ May 22 2010, 05:02 PM) Hi i thought of having lasik surgery , and i have did a research on the lasik centre's like Optimax, Vista, Centre for sight and Advance Vision, all around pj centre's. So far of all these lasik centers i've been to, i found out that Advance vision gives a good service and and a very reasonable price like RM2,888 for both eyes. The dr (Dr Yeoh)over there is very friendly and patient as he explains and answer every single questions that I ve asked. As compared with optimax and vista, they kept pushing me for a expensive package e.g. RM2,998/eye(good) RM4,998/eye(better). Advance vison, they only gives me two choices RM 2,888 or RM5,588 for both eyes and they said it's an option for us to take or not and iam very glad that ive found that at least i can do the standard/ conventional package compared to Vista or Optimax where they tell me that i have to go for custom lasik bcoz i have a very high Astiq. One more thing they are offering a lifetime warranty and follow up check up is free for life too. So do u guys/ gals have any comment ? as ive booked a surgery date on the 4th of June.  can i know which one that u are going for ?? RM2888 or RM5588 ?? i though of having lasik surgery too but not sure do i need pay any money for the check up or consultation ?

QUOTE(Adriano_64 @ Jun 10 2010, 02:21 PM) To check whether are you suitable for lasik is free and if you plan of doing the surgery, the doctor have to put in drops to check the health of your eye, for this part you have to pay RM80.I have done the surgery last friday on the 4th of June. Its really worth it for the price of RM2,888 for getting a perfect vision without wearing glasses, good customer service as well as the doctor over there is giving a very good explanation before the surgery and i also felt that I am on a safe hands. I waited quite long for almost an hour before doing the surgery but i felt worth waiting. A few of my cousins plan to go over for the surgery too after they saw me doing it. i went there for the 1st time check up. the doc say my eye power s too high, the standard lasik not suit for me, i only can do the custom lasik which cost RM5588, anyone here do b4 the custom lasik ??

QUOTE(emily88 @ Nov 30 2011, 02:11 PM) eh? not 2888 meh? i have booked to do it there already at this promotional price, will do it in mid december... bit scared but cant wait to chuck the ol' specks. heheh btw anyone has done it at advance vision? any comments? i feel that the staff n the doc are all competent and reliable. 2888 is for normal lasik, i do custom lasik RM5588 due to my eye power is very high. When: End November 2011. Where: advance vision Power: Right 750myopia/550astig Left 800myopia/350astig Treatment: Had custom wavefront lasik, which means the computer guided laser thingy does the cutting according to shape of each eye-this is supposed to give better result especially for glare/night driving problems and safe cornea tissues due to my eye power is very high. Cost:RM 5588 My age: 25 Current situation Doc say due to mine is high power, it will take longer time to recover. so far now had pass a week, my vision had recover around 70%, sometimes very clear but sometime might bit blur when look at small tiny words in pc or newspaper. Doc say need 1-2months than only can fully recover. i did not suffer any dry eye or irritation issues. probably 1 month before my surgery i had start consume bilberry daily (friend recormend as say it is very good for eye). will update again the conditions 1 month later.

QUOTE(navilink @ Dec 5 2011, 08:34 AM) where u bought the bilberry? is it recommended by doctor? i'm going for treatment this thursday.. my power around 650+(left)-blade cut and 850+(right)-laser cut i get bilberry from GNC, this few months they have promotion, one box is around RM100-120 which can last for a month. Doctor did not special recommend for bilberry, however you can try google the info for bilberry as it is clinically prove that good for eye. just went for my 2nd check up on last Sat, left eye astig 75 and right eye astig 50. Doc say still need time to recover and it will improve in next few weeks. so far now i can see things very clear, no irritation or dry eye issue (not sure is it due to i consume the bilberry). night time have slightly glare issues (but compare with b4 surgery, now it is much better and improve). will update again eye condition after 2 weeks.

QUOTE(Altruis @ Jun 7 2012, 12:54 AM) Going for Lasix this Friday @ Advance Vision PJ Uptown. Huhu. i saw you there. haha... hows ur vision now? Added on June 14, 2012, 7:13 pmlatest update for my eye condition after 7months of custom lasik at Advance Vison uptown pj. The Dr say my left eye hv 0.25 shortsighted with 0.75 astig and right eye 0.25 shortsighted with 0.50 astig. vision consider as stable as since pass 4months till now no change for the power. i'm 100% satisfy with surgery and service. last time my left eye was 7.75 shortsighted with 5.25 astig and right eye 7.50 shortsighted with 5.5 astig. Dr told me that i still can go for enhancement to reduce the power for both eye to zero. after days of consideration than i decide leave it what is it now as i have no vision issues for day or night.

QUOTE(Altruis @ Jun 14 2012, 10:54 PM) Haha. Total downtime = 15 hours LASIK finished at 4pm. Next morning 7am was at gym bench pressing. XD 1st 6 hours most susah. Really uncomfortable feeling and very watery. Recommend all people to straight away go home and take the sleeping tablet and sleep. Cause if you try to sleep without sleeping tablet sure wake up due to eye itchy/uncomfortable. By the next morning the feeling 99% like normal d. Rt eye power 3.5D before LASIK, now got some very mild halo still but visual acuity almost 90% of Lt eye. Left eye power 0.75D before LASIK. No halos, nothing, power 100% of normal d the next day after LASIK. yah, the next few hours after lasik is bit suffering as the eye was so watering and very hard to open the eye. saw you sit there for quite long and keep haha.... well, you are lucky on that day as my mum appointment was on 5pm but in the end not able do it due to the machine pc hang and down.
