PittTheElder posted:In a nutshell, by a patient and not a doctor: I now have enough money saved up to fix my eyes and I really want to do it. I am scared shitless about it though since Murphy's Law has it out for me. I am curious though if ICLs have the same drawbacks as normal contact lenses (barring dry eye/discomfort issues)? For me everything gets darker and halos when I put contacts in and I've never had a contact lens that didn't feel like I had an eyelash in my eye. First time I was forced to night drive was a VERY scary experience. I'm worried I'm gonna spend thousands of dollars and still end up with halos and night vision problems, where with glasses I don't have any problems other than them being coke bottles. I also seem to be on that borderline for lasik at -8.5-ish diopter so there is worries on that as well. I can't tell if what I'm reading online is just marketing shtick or real cause it seems like everyone has got different answers.

That certainly puts me a little at ease. So you still get halos and you just ignore them, or are they gone? Also thank you for giving a price. I couldn't find one for icl's anywhere. Though it seems like I'm the only person on the internet to have poorer night vision with contacts since I can't find mention of it anywhere.

How is your vision in the dark compared to when you had glasses? Is everything the same brightness? I've tried contacts but between usual discomforts of contacts, and dark places being somehow darker than when I had glasses, I couldn't handle it. Anything in shadow was darker than what it was when I had glasses on. I want to get lasik or some other eye correction but I'm super afraid of getting stuck with that weird side effect even after. I couldn't drive at night cause everything was pitch black aside from direct light sources. I could at least see past my own headlights with my glasses on. Google is no help for finding any answers.
