And on the other side of the spectrum my friend was at -10, got it done and has been complaining for the past 15 years or more. He can barely drive at night now and it hasn't fixed all his issues so he still needs glasses and has needed them since the operation (just not as much for his myopia) so he's not saving any money
I’m not doubting at all that there are cases like this and I’m terribly sorry for your friend. I only wanted to present a different perspective for those considering having the procedure. It’s definitely not a decision that should be made lightly.
mate at -10 he wasn't doing great before he had lasik either.
Was 100% functional with glasses now not functional at night with or without glasses, dry eyes, still needs glasses
No one is saying that it's a flawless procedure but at -10 homie is a few stops away from legally blind. He gambled and lost. Life's a beach.
