subject: Seeing Is Believing, Believing Is Seeing [print this page] Lasik in Louisville is to eye correction what rubber was to roller skates. If you are old than forty-five, you will remember that roller skates wheels used to be made of metal. You needed a little key to tighten them onto your shoes. After these death traps were fitted as snuggly as possible off you went to skate the afternoon away with your friends. The problem was the skates always fell off. You always hit a small pebble and you always ended up with bruised legs and bloody knees.
While contacts and glasses may not bruise your legs and bloody your knees they are just as inefficient and inconvenient as metal wheels for skating. How often have you forgot to order new contacts and the daily grind of scratchy contacts seems to be your plight. How often are you watching a movie late at night and would love to get your contacts out after a long day, but your option would then be to listen to the voices as blurry people are all you would see. Glasses are good late at night as long as you aren't lying down.
All these wonderful expensive headsets for gaming and music, have you ever tried to wear a headset with glasses? Not so enjoyable.
Lasik in Louisville solves all these problems and a host of others. You may be concerned about the safety of the procedure. The best testimonial offered is that many ophthalmologists have had the surgery performed on himself or herself or a close family member. If a doctor is willing to do it themselves or a child or spouse have the procedure has a good track record.
The FDA with their extensive research has never had a patient lose vision due to Lasik. These are valid points to consider and wonder about, but if you remember our litigious society, doctors would never take the risks of performing surgery where people lost eyesight. The liability would be too great.
The treatment is safe and pain free. Little drops of anesthetic eye drops before the procedure and a mild feeling of discomfort may result for a few hours following. After that, there is no tenderness at all.
No one is asking metal wheels to return for retro-week at school. No one misses the bruised legs and bloody knees. Lasik in Louisville is making glasses and contacts part of history, just like metal wheels on roller skates.
