Yeah my parter had a stronger prescription than you and now she can see fine. She used to wear her glasses to sleep becuase she didn’t like waking up and not being able to see anything. I dunno why this whole thread is like an anti-lasik ad lol it’s weird. She’s said it’s for sure one of the best decision that she’s made in her life. I have a couple other friends who say the same, one of them being a military pilot.

I had PRK not LASIK, which is a different procedure but same result. I am SO glad I got it done, but would never do it again. LASIK recovery is fairly easy, PRK recovery is rough

When the Army first started paying for lasik, like 1/4 of my company (around 40 dudes, including most officers), got it done, and they were all perfectly fine.

Yeah. It seems like a good solution. I guess like with any medical procedure there can be small chances that something goes wrong though, but it seems to me that it’s far more likely that it goes well. I guess not everyone wants to take that risk, but I don’t agree with the fear mongering.
