Computers is what I can say my everyday buddy, I work 8 hours in front of the computer and extra 3hours in front of the computers at home. I also love reading books, magazine and some article in the computers that I printed and read it on the bus on my way to work and home.

In short I use my eyes too much. Right now I can still enjoy my sight but how if it was been started to degrade what will be my option, contact lenses, eyeglass or surgery? As far as I know eyeglass is the cheapest choice but the drawback is quite hard to get use to it, same as the contact lenses the maintenance is really demanding and a hassle if you have a night life or even in your sports activity.

Good thing there is LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) - a type of surgery that’s meant to correct vision problems. It’s a great service for some people like me, to improved vision and no need for glasses or even contact lenses. The procedure concentrates on the cornea — the clear, thin surface layer that helps focus light that enters the eye. During lasik, the surgeon cuts a thin flap in the cornea and then folds the flap to the side. Then, using a laser, the doctor reshapes the cornea underneath the opening. The flap is then laid back in place and the cornea heals without the use of stitches which make it cool! But as the technology evolve so fast, now a modern lasik combines with 3D mapping and customized treatments for the 1st all-laser technology which been get approved by the US Military & NASA for their personnel and even for astronauts wherein clear vision is the main aspect for their job.
But not everyone is eligible to have lasik. One thing to consider, it can be risky to undergo lasik if your corneas are thin, since tissue is removed from the cornea during the procedure. Also, a minority of patients may be too near- or farsighted for the procedure, since too much tissue may need to be removed. Women who are pregnant or nursing are also often advised not to get the procedure. Serious complications are less than 1%. Some lasik patients have experienced glare, halos or double vision at night or in other low-light conditions. This issues that aren’t reflected in the 20/20 number, which only indicates that a person can see clearly from 20 feet away what people with normal vision would see at that distance. Most who experience these problems find that they improve in four to six weeks after surgery, according to the refractive surgery society. In rarer cases, they last longer or don’t go away.
So if you are considering to have a lasik and tire of wearing contact lenses or eyeglasses, find a person who know person who take lasik or person take in lasik procedure before, ask for referrals to a good physician, I suggest take your own research and for more LASIK information, please visit www.thelasikfacts.com
