I had it done 5 years ago and it was the best thing I ever did for myself. Free of contacts, glasses and not being able to see when I wake up. The first couple of days after surgery were kinda rough, but after that I could see clearly and I only have one regret--I wish I would have done it sooner!!
Good luck!

I had the lasik surgery back in 2002. It's been great ever since. No more glasses or fighting with contacts. The price is a bit high, but its worth it in the long run. My Dr. let me set up a payment plan so even that wasn't that bad. The first couple days are rough, and you might have to deal with dry eyes afterwards. One of the best decisions I ever made.

My daughter had it done about 8 years ago and is very pleased with the result. She felt bad for a few days and bright sunlight bothered her for a few months, but she sees better than before when using her glasses or contacts and no longer gets headaches from eye strain.

Lasik eye surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her dental implants and lasik surgery in India by a company called Forerunners Healthcare. The Price for dental and lasik surgery is very less in India. She paid 25% of the price she was quoted in America.
Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India They arrange Dental surgery, jaw surgery, lasik eye surgery, Dental Implants etc for foreign patients in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines- about their patient stories.
They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as dental and eye surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
