Recommended Posts

Im trying to find a doctor to do my LASIK surgery in NYC. I created a post about it but i didnt get any replies. So again i ask, Does anyone know of a reputable LASIK surgeon in the NYC area?

Good Luck Suebaby, let me know how it all goes. Thanks Tamika

I am jealous. I really want to have it done but it's 4,500.00 here. I see ads all the time to have it done way cheaper than that.

Denise,

I had it done a couple of years ago and I wouldn't hesitate to have it done out of town/state. I was only down for the day... and was out watching a movie at the theater that night. It is totally awesome!! :crying:

Don't you have to go back for a check after a couple of weeks though? I could have it done in Arizona probably way cheaper. I usually stay there at least 2 weeks when I go to see my dad.

I had lasik done two years ago and I love it. I highly recommend getting the plugs in the eye ducts put in. It keeps your natural tears in your eyes so your eyes never get dry while they are recovering. I got the ones that naturally dissolve after like 2-3 months. I paid a grand for both eyes to be done and the duct things. The next morning when I came back I was like 20/15 in one eye and 20/20 in the other. You can tell you are still healing for a good week afterwards. Oh and I never slept with those stupid glasses on. I tried, but it was so uncomfortable.

Well it has now been almost 3 weeks

WOW the surgery itself was kind of freaky, but the after effects are well worth it 20/20 in both eyes down from 20/40 and 20/35

amazing !!!!!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
