laser eye surgery

Before getting a surgery, it is important to think carefully and talk to a few doctors to make sure it is the right decision. Even though the technology is advanced, there are still problems that can occur after the surgery. My brother had the surgery and now 6 months later he is having problems with his night vision and daytime fogging. Research shows that this is happening to many people, and it can even lead to the loss of an eye. It is important to look into the risks and complications before getting the surgery. There are reports and statistics available that show the problems that can occur after the surgery. It is important to be aware of these risks before making a decision.

The FDA says that there is a 5% risk of having complications from eye surgery, but in reality, the risk is much higher, between 20-30%. These complications can include dry eyes, loss of contrast, light beams and flashes, and can last a lifetime. Some of these side effects are irreversible. In some countries, like ours and Thailand, doctors are performing this surgery on more people than in Europe, like Germany, in order to create statistical data. Doctors are treating patients as customers, trying to convince them to have the surgery, even though it is purely for aesthetic purposes and is not necessary. It is important to do your research and talk to multiple doctors before making a decision.

I wanted to have laser eye surgery, but it didn't happen. However, I learned that when getting laser eye surgery, it's important to make sure the doctor has at least 15 units of experience. This is something that one of the four people who founded Dev-Sol knows.

I had an operation that made a huge difference in my life. Before the surgery, I was very nearsighted and couldn't even recognize my dad if he was standing right in front of me. Now, I can see things clearly from 5 kilometers away. It's been five years since the surgery and I haven't had any issues. If you're considering getting laser surgery, make sure you find a good doctor. Just kidding, you can't get laser surgery with your eyes closed!

I was 11 years old when I first started wearing glasses and 16 when I started wearing contact lenses. After 8 years of wearing lenses, my eyes were very dry and red, so I decided to get eye surgery. I asked around for a good hospital that was both reliable and affordable, and I found one. The doctor said that I would need to wear glasses for 3 months before the surgery, and then I would be able to have the surgery. After the surgery, I was able to see clearly for the first time in years. It has been 10 years since the surgery and my vision has not changed. I would recommend this surgery to anyone who has been wearing glasses or lenses for a long time.

I had a surgery called i-Lasik in 2004 and my eyesight has been perfect ever since. It was painless and there were no side effects. It's been 10 years and I still have perfect vision. I highly recommend this surgery for people with nearsightedness because it guarantees no distortion. It won't give you perfect vision right away, but your vision will get better and better over the course of a week or so. The only downside is that you might become obsessed with reading signs and license plates for a while. If you're old enough and your eyesight has stopped getting worse, I would definitely recommend this surgery. I applied in the morning and had the surgery done by the afternoon. It was amazing to be able to see without glasses. No more fogging up when I go from a cold environment to a hot one!

Before the surgery, the nurse gives you a sedative to help you relax. Then they take you to the operating room and put a blanket on you. They use scissors to cut a part of the cover that is over your eye. This can be a bit irritating. They then open your eyes with something that doesn't hurt and wash them. A device is placed on top of your eye that will give a laser to your eyes. They attach something like a vacuum to your eye to cut the top layer of the eye, which may hurt a bit. You become blind for a moment, but then the doctors put the lens in a hoop and you can see again. After the surgery, you should wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from light. Your eyes may be red and run like a faucet for a few hours afterwards. The next day, you look in the mirror and see that your eyes are still red. The doctor checks your eyes and the redness starts to heal. Eventually, you can see without glasses or lenses and forget the pain. However, your right eye may not see as well as it used to.

After having surgery, do not use a computer for at least one week. Do not even try to type anything into a computer for the first day after the surgery.

People who wear lenses are used to having eye surgery, which is made easier thanks to technology. Before the surgery, a person may be given a medication to help them relax. During the surgery, a cover is placed over the eye and then the eye is cut and some manual interventions are done. This part can be a bit painful. Then a laser is used which doesn't hurt but takes about 30 seconds. The second eye usually goes faster. After the surgery, the person may feel a bit uncomfortable with their eyes bandaged and the light hurting them. The vision should be perfect the next day, but they may need to use eye drops for a while afterwards.

I had been wearing glasses for 7 years and contact lenses for 3 years, and my doctor suggested that I stop using them. I decided to look into laser eye surgery, and after two weeks of research, I decided to go with the LASEK method. On April 10th, I went to the hospital and had the surgery done. During the surgery, I was given drops to numb my eyes and a laser was used to reshape my cornea. After the surgery, I experienced a lot of pain and sensitivity to light, but it gradually got better over the next few days. After a month, I was able to see clearly and the pain had gone away. I will go back for a checkup in 3 months.

laser eye surgery

I recently found out that 25% of ophthalmologists in the US have had laser eye surgery. Even celebrities who have money don't always use contact lenses, they sometimes wear glasses. I have heard that if a hard object comes in contact with the eye after the surgery, it can cause blindness, but I haven't seen any scientific evidence to back this up. I was worried about this surgery for a long time, but two of my cousins had it done 10 years ago and haven't had any problems. Don't believe everything you hear, it's important to get your information from reliable sources. Have a nice weekend!

Understand that after having laser eye surgery, your night vision will be permanently decreased and you may experience chronic dryness of the eye. As you get older, your vision will naturally worsen and you will need glasses again after the age of 40. Eye hospitals usually target people between the ages of 18-33 who have myopia or hyperopia less than 5-6 and want to get rid of their glasses for aesthetic reasons. However, even the owners of these hospitals do not perform the operation on themselves. It is important to remember that this surgery carries risks and it is not recommended to do it. Think of people like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates who have not had this operation despite being wealthy.

I am an ophthalmologist, which is a doctor who specializes in eye care. People often think about getting laser eye surgery to get rid of their glasses, but studies have shown that 8 or 9 out of 10 patients are satisfied with the results for many years. However, there is a small group of patients who experience complications or their vision returns to what it was before the surgery. This can be very upsetting for the patient, which is why some people are scared of the procedure.

Another issue is that some hospitals don't do a proper evaluation before the surgery, which can lead to complications. For example, people with certain eye conditions, thin corneas, high astigmatism, or unstable refraction should not have the surgery. People with dry eye syndrome should also avoid it, as the dryness may get worse after the procedure.

Many ophthalmologists don't do refractive surgery because they are worried about the potential loss of depth perception, as well as other complications. Ultimately, it is up to the patient to decide if the risks and benefits of the surgery are worth it.

I have been wearing glasses since I was 9 years old and my lenses were getting thicker. I decided to get an operation to correct my vision and it worked! It took a month for me to see clearly and I had to use eye drops for a while. After a year, my dry eye completely disappeared. Now I can see clearly without glasses and I appreciate all the small details I can see. Technology has been a great help!

On March 6th, 2016, I had a Lasik eye surgery. I was very unsure about it, so I asked around 20 people for advice. After doing some research online, I decided to go to Dr. Bayram Yapic. During the first examination, they said that my corneal thickness wasn't suitable because I had worn contact lenses a week before. After taking measurements, they said that my eye was suitable for the operation. They offered two methods: PRK and Intra Lasik. PRK was more painful and could cause stinging in the eye for up to a week. Intra Lasik only had a few hours of stinging. I chose Intra Lasik, even though it was more expensive. On the day of the surgery, they put three drops in my eye and I put on a surgery suit. They used a tool to keep my eye steady and then disinfected it. They then used a machine to take the tip of my cornea and switched on the laser. I had to follow a red dot in a round ring. The operation only took four minutes and when it was over, I could see clearly. They put a temporary lens on my eye and asked me to come back in 5-6 hours to remove it. When I removed the lens, my vision was even better. I didn't experience any pain or stinging. I drove home 10 minutes after the operation and the 5 hours they said it would take didn't even last 1 minute. I'm happy to answer any questions anyone has about the operation.

After only 10-15 minutes of discomfort, you leave the glasses at the place where you had the procedure done. Your eyes will be burning and you won't be able to open them for a few hours, and you'll be crying a lot. When you wake up the next morning, everything will be blurry, but you'll be filled with joy knowing you don't have to wear glasses anymore. It will take weeks or months to start seeing clearly, unless there are other issues. Until you get used to not wearing glasses, you'll keep putting your hand up to your face like you're wearing glasses. People will just see you touching your forehead.

My wife had to go through 3 more operations after the initial procedure because her eyes were not healthy. She had to wear hard lenses and it has been almost 10 years since then. Before you decide on a doctor or clinic, it is important to consult with more than one place to make sure you are getting the best care possible.

I have gone through this surgery and there is nothing to worry about. I have taken control of my life and I am living it on my own terms.

laser eye surgery

My eyesight has been getting worse since I was in primary school. I had to wear glasses or lenses to see things clearly, and I was scared of going to places like the pool or the sea because I couldn't see properly. We went to a doctor and he said that my eyesight was getting worse with age, but that I was young enough to take a risk and get laser surgery. I was scared, but I decided to do it. Now, it's been 7 months since the surgery and my eyesight has improved a lot. I'm still a bit scared of driving at night, but I'm getting better at it. Taking risks can sometimes bring great rewards, and I'm glad I took the risk to get laser surgery.

laser eye surgery

Every year or two, I think about getting a procedure done to improve my vision, but I gave up because I was worried about my night vision. People around me have had it done and are happy with the results, but I'm worried about not being able to see clearly at night and having dry eyes. I'm also concerned that if I wait too long, I won't be able to get the procedure done because of my age. There are a lot of people who have had the procedure done and are satisfied, but I'm still worried about the potential risks.

Medicine and technology are advancing quickly, and this has brought a lot of comfort to people. However, surgery can be a scary prospect, as it is not always guaranteed to work and can have side effects even years later. I will tell you about my own experience. My mother had laser eye surgery about 10-12 years ago, and it was successful. However, a few years later, she developed cataracts in both eyes. We visited a doctor who specializes in laser eye surgery, and he warned us that the cataract surgery could be more risky than normal, and that she might need a second operation with a 30% chance of vision loss. We decided to look for a better option and found a hospital in Switzerland that could do the surgery with a 90% chance of success and only a 5% chance of needing a second operation. After two years, this technology is becoming more available in Turkey, and my mother now has better vision than she did when she was 18. I have decided not to have surgery, as I don't want to take the risks. My wife had the surgery four years ago and is very happy with the results.

laser eye surgery

I was really scared to get laser eye surgery because I heard a rumor that if you sneeze during the surgery, your eyes could pop out. I was also worried that the laser could damage other parts of my eye or that my eye wouldn't heal properly. But when I went into the operating room, the doctor put on some music and I felt a lot better. The surgery only took about 5 minutes and it went really well. I'm glad I got it done and I would recommend it to anyone who needs it.

I always ask him why he hasn't had an eye doctor do a procedure on him that no one else has done.

26

laser eye surgery

I decided not to get the surgery because all three of the doctors I saw who had the surgery were wearing glasses. We don't know what will happen to those eyes when they get older, so it's not clear if the surgery is a good idea. Basically, why should I get the surgery if it's not clear if it will be beneficial in the long run?
