In reply to: LASIK’s been discussed, but has anyone had lens implants?  posted by roxie


A friend of mine had a severe prescription (like -6 to -8 or something) and had implants. She seems much happier.

I'm tempted to get lasik one of these days but I have three issues with it:

1. People who get it report that macular degeneration continues and they eventually go back to wearing glasses/etc so it's not a silver bullet

2. If you work at a computer or have dry eyes it's suboptimal

3. I look awesome in glasses.
