I've always thought of LASIK but have always been wary. I've worn glasses since I was about 13 and occasionally wear contacts. The contacts I'd wear on a night out only since they're a pain in the rear end to get in at 730am when I'm in a rush for work, especially since astigmatism in one eye means I have to get them in the right orientation each time. I think my vision is -4.5 and -4.75. Biggest problem though is I've had a vein burst in the back of each eye now, leading to small points where vision is very fuzzy. (Basically like if you look at a bright light and you see an after-image. Its that but doesnt go away). Its called a Branched Retinal Vein Occlusion (BRVO) if you want to know. So I'm basically paranoid about anything going near my eye, especially to chop it open incase it worsens the problems I have. I presume this is a contraindication for LASIK, but I've never checked. The docs have told me I must always be well hydrated (dehydration = thicker blood, more chance of clot, more chance of another BRVO). Anyone on here had similar problems that they had, and had LASIK done anyway?
