im interested in getting lasik, tired of wearing glasses. need some recommendations on which places are legit and do good work. also how much did it cost? TIA

 

I have heard many great things about Evergreen Eye Center. They make an appt to see if you qualify for the surgey and they have payment plans available to you. I want the surgey but to much money. A lady that i know did her research and went there and love it. So here is the number 253-833-3000.

 

Oh ya forget to tell you the last price that was quoted to me was between 2000 - 3000.

 

^^ you can request an info packet from them as well.. they'll even send a video with it too...

i've inquired about it... but up till about 1yr ago i had hard contacts... i switched to soft... cause other research i've done said that b4 surgery needed to go like 2-3months w/o contacts if wear hard.... 1-2 weeks if you have soft(give/take) my most recent prescription glasses i have is from like 95... i didnt wanna drop 100-200 for new pair that i'd only wear for like 2-3months tops

 

i've always wanted lasik.....

 

According to my last eye exam, my vision is not weak enough to warrant a use for Lasik, but obviously not strong enough to be without correction. I've heard stories about people who still have to wear glasses when reading even after having Lasik performed on them.

*shrug*

 

I know a couple of guys where I work that had it done, one said it was the best investment he made, was done up in Canada, went through some place in bellingham, the other guy has to use eye drops because his tear ducts got screwed up, not sure if it was lasik or not. There is a place in Vancouver that says they will do it for 995 per eye, wish insurance covered the cost or even part of it, but it is considered "cosmetic surgery" grrr.

 

i am also thinking about doing it also in a really bad way

 

I had it done about 6 years ago.

One of the best decisions I ever made. I used to wear contacts and by the end of the week my eyes were red and dry and itchy etc... I wasn't very good about taking care of them.

Now I get up in the morning and can see!! Best of all my insurance covered the whole thing!

I would reccomend it to anyone who is qualified.

 

I want to get Lasik but not sure if I want to see Todd that clearly. He's not as scary when blurry.

 

i've never worn contacts, only glasses so i guess that shouldnt be a problem.
