Eye Surgery Complications
Has anyone ever had lasik eye surgery?

How much does it cost?
does it hurt?
is there many complications?
How does it feel after the procedure is done?
after it is done... is there a chance my eyesight can worsen?
and would you reccommend other ppl to have this type of surgery?

I had Lasik about two years ago. It cost me about $3000 (including a lifetime guarantee) and I was able to make payments of about $300 a month.

I am very pleased with it and have not had any problems at all.

As with any procedure there are many possible complications. However, I know a handful of people who have had it done and have been very pleased as well. If you are considering it I would say make sure you do research first and choose the best place to have it done.

You will have slight discomfort the first day but the rocovery time is only a few days.
