Is LASIK a good investment?

Yes.
Lasik was the worst mistake of my life by far.
Should have just sticked with my coopervision biofinity soft contacts that i imported from eastern europe for like 80 bucks a year.
I feel so fucking dumb for replacing my perfect soft contact vision and comfort with shitty HOA vision, with dry eyes and potential flap risk.
Worst decision of all time by far and i will never stop feeling suicidal thinking about it.

To anyone: if you really need to go for refractive surgery please at least go for Topography-guided ablation and TransPRK
this is the least fucked up option

another vote for 'fuck destructive eye surgery'
between lenses and glasses, I'm fine until a good solution is invented

No!
It doesnt matter if its PRK, Lasik, Relex Smile or any other procedure you hear about.
Munnerlyn Formula is always relevant.
t = S^2 D/3 with S defined as the diameter of the treatment zone
Tissue ablation depth increases by a power of two with ablated area diameter

fucking /thread
holy shit i laughed so hard

Your shitty experience will save some of us here who are persuaded by your words. Stay strong user

Checked.
I hope so, man.
If I can only save a few people from going through what i am going through by sharing my story there is still a reason for me to live

of course there are a lot of lasik success stories. but the risk is never worth it

Here I am running around 10+ years with glasses, not even considering contacts lol.

My vision is not too bad, maybe -0.75 dioptre so I don't bother using glasses, but having better vision would still be great. Is there a surgery that fits me? Something that isn't quite as drastic and expensive as LASIK, but in return don't have to correct the vision that much either?

The not drastic solution is glasses, surgeries are always drastic.

Glasses sounds super shitty though, I don't want to carry around or wear something on my face all the time. I'd rather have surgery than that.
