If you are living with corrective lenses, you should really take a moment and ask yourself why you are choosing to do so. Surprised? You shouldn’t be. Today wearing glasses or contact lenses truly is a personal choice. Laser eye surgery is now so reliable, so affordable, and so widespread that you have to ask yourself not “is it right for me” but “do I have a reason not to get it?” If you consider the considerable benefits, especially when weighed against the negligible drawbacks, such a reason is very hard to find. A laser procedure restores your natural vision and frees you from reliance on your corrective lenses, giving you one less thing in life to worry about and keep track of. When it comes to the cost of corrective surgery – which is falling all the time – just remind yourself that you are comparing a one-time procedure to the cost of a lifetime of glasses or contact lenses, as well as regular visits to the optometrist.
