LASIK Eye Surgery in Salt Lake City, Utah

Sorry for the delay, but I finally had time to write my experience. I started wearing glasses since I was 11 years old. My vision only got worse year after year even after turning 30 years old due to my career profession. I?m a graphic designer and a photographer. I use computer daily and camera often and require clear vision. Without glasses or contacts, I was pretty much blind. I not only had really bad near sight, I also had very bad astigmatism. Without glasses nor contacts, things need to be put on front of my face about 5 inches to be able to see clear. I had consider LASIK few years ago, but I was told with my strong astigmatism, I could only do permanent implant. I didn?t want to do that. So I wait another few years. Many years went by, the. LASIK technology has improved a lot. I?ve decided to get a consultation to see if my eyes would be a good candidate to do the surgery. Luckily I was. I had LASIK surgery done on 5/31/2019. I went in 6/3/2019 for a post-surgery appointment. Then I had another appointment on 6/2, the last follow up appointment was on 8/21. The surgery day, I was a bit worried. The procedure itself was super fast really. I didn?t feel any pain at all. But there is a monitor that you could see the previous patient?s procedure, that was part kind of grossed me out. Lol! It was hard to watch. But when I was all done, I could see the time from the clock on the wall already. Though it wasn?t super clear due to the liquid they put into my eyes. But I knew my vision has changed a lot already right away. The first week after the surgery, I was pretty frustrated because I couldn?t see things very sharp. I have no problem driving the next day, but of course, my far sight is not super clear yet. But the things bothered me the most was my near sight. Due to my profession, I have to see pixels on the screen, but the first week, I had to wear reading glasses to see something close, such as my computer monitor and cellphone. Sometimes with reading glasses, I still couldn't see very clear front the computer monitor. Doctor did tell me before my procedure due to my age (47), my near sight will get worse and worse and I will need to wear reading glasses no matter what. I won?t be able to avoid that. But my far sight will improve. So I was quite frustrated and even regretting did the surgery because I couldn?t see my monitor and cellphone without wearing the reading glasses. Luckily, the condition gradually improved after a month. By my last appointment on 8/21, my vision is 20/20. My vision has never been better. I don?t need reading glasses to read either. My eyes are doing great now. My vision before the surgery with glasses was R 20/40 (-8.00 -2.50 x179) L 20/25 (-7.25 -2.75 x178). Without glasses, I couldn?t even see how many fingers holding up from the person in front of me. It?s amazing how much my vision has improved. I?m super happy with it. All I want to say is it?s worth it and do it while you are still young, so you can enjoy longer of the days without reading glasses. And everyone?s recovery time is different. It took me almost 2 months to get to my perfect vision today. Patience is needed if your eye sight was bad as mine to start with. The doctors and staffs at LAsikPlus are super nice. I really appreciate your help. Gift your self this amazing gift! LASIK surgery rocks!
