I have considered lasik in the past, especially since contacts hurt my eyes and I am frustrated with glasses. I agree we should be told this beforehand, informed consent and all that.
This was really interesting! I have severe myopia and have worn glasses/contacts since I was a toddler. Not a candidate for simple LASIK but wasn't interested in PRK either .. it scared me! Am correctable to 20/20 thankfully but I do love taking my glasses off and truly seeing ... very close up obviously but incredible detail! always always loved this ability. would miss it with laser correction!

Interesting, but I'm not sure I quite follow.
1. Doesn't presbyopia deprive most people of this meso scale world by the time we're 50, even without LASIK or contacts?
2. I got monovision LASIK - one eye corrected for distance, one eye remaining nearsighted. Am I good?
