Hopefully the dogo chiros are better at that :x One of the biggest scams I've heard of a chiropractor running is charging patients for "X-rays" and then showing the mark the one, same radiograph of (someone else's) badly aligned spine with issues and then doing some work and charging for MORE X-rays and then showing them an X-ray of a normal back. They won't do this to you if they realize you're at all sophisticated but (I've heard) it's a relatively common problem. EAT FASTER!!!!!! fucked around with this message at 18:09 on Oct 1, 2019 |

I had LASEK surgery in 2010, at the age of 23; by Christmas 2015 I needed specs again. I guess I'm just part of the nth percentile whose eyesight hadn't 'settled' by then.

Hoshi posted:Should have gotten the extended warranty I don’t know if that’s just a joke or not but you can spend a lot of extra money for lifetime care, which I guess includes touch ups. My brother just got the surgery and they were trying to upsell like crazy. I had LASIK 15 years ago and it’s been a fantastic success except I now have to wear expensive progressive lens glasses because my close up vision is poo poo. LASIK can’t help if the elasticity of your retina muscles goes weak. On the plus side Warby Parker is GWM.

Those week muscles are the result of presbyopia, literally "elder eye." I'm 36 and had LASIK done almost 15 years ago, and it was the best money I ever spent. My wife had SMILE LASIK done and the cuts were done with a laser as well, so not all have a blade doing the incision.

My brother just got the surgery and they were trying to upsell like crazy. I'm not sure whether I spent a lot of extra, it was 1.8k per eye all in which seemed pretty average from my research, but if my vision is every less then 20/20 they'll redo it for free (as long as I'm still eligible for the surgery). One of my co-workers parents got it redone recently after 10 years so I felt pretty good about the guarantee. Also the best part of the procedure was when my vision was completely gone, having it fade like that one eye at a time was disconcertingly neat!

BMan posted:yeah, they call it "laser" eye surgery but they don't mention the microkeratome Most LASIK today is all-laser. They use a second laser that produces extremely short pulses that cause cavitation in the surface layers of the eye, effectively cutting the flap.

After that I was like IDGAF what you do, just try not to gently caress it up. Judging from a sample of the people who I know who have had it, the number one factor in how painful the recovery is is whether or not you're a smoker. In my case, the friend who was supposed to drive me to my followup appointment the next morning forgot and slept in, so I wound up driving myself. Basically my eyes watered and hurt until I fell asleep after the surgery and then the worst I had after that was some dry-eye for a few days. I couldn't have hoped for better results than I had.

In the context of being freaked out by the idea. P sure that wasn't on anyone's mind who saw it being performed and decided against based on watching. Phanatic posted:
I'm jealous. My eyes were already dry bc contacts were damaging my oil glands, then I basically immediately got a blocked tear gland. The first 3 days or so were excruciating and that gland didn't clear for like a month. I've never smoked in my life unless you count one drag when I was 11 that made me sick all day.

Vox Nihili posted:Goddamn this sounds terrifying. My biggest fear about the experience of the procedure itself was feeling the need to blink and being unable to, feeling like I'm Alex sitting there strapped to the chair for the Ludovico procedure. But that trickle of water utterly obviated any feeling that I needed to blink and made the whole thing not unpleasant.
