• Can I get Lasik surgery if I have dry eyes?

  As we know, eye dry is one of the complications after the lasik surgery. You'd better have your dry eyes cured before the surgery is done or have your eyes check and get some specific suggestions from your doctor.

• How should I find out whether my sunglasses are orignal or duplicate?

  Compare photos of the sunglasses to photos from the designer's official website. If you notice any variations between the two, the sunglasses in question are not authentic.

• Age requirement in other countries for Lasik surgery?

  It is almost the same in Europe,you are not qualified to get lasik surgery before 20 year old, for the vision is not stable, your vision could still change after the lasik surgery.

• Can you give some feedback for Lasik surgery?

  My dad had a surgery for 5 years and until now everything goes well, he has clear vision ,he don't have to wear his eyeglasses or any contacts, It is commonly viewed that lasik surgery is safe.

• Will it be harmful if i flinch or move during Lasik surgery?

  The lasik surgery is operated by eye doctor using delicate instrument and various solutions.Your eyes are asked to be focused on a fixed place during the procedures, if you move, the laser will stop automatically.

• Should I have lasik surgery to fix my vision?

  Don't be afraid of that, it is highly recommended by me. For me, I had Lasik eye surgery done after wearing glasses for 10 years. It has been perfect for me. I have had no changes. Before I do the surgery I know, risks and benefits are existed at the same time, I belive I am the lucky person. Then everything is done. I've seen several people who said they were in some pain, but healed just fine.But for me, everything is OK, I can see things clearly no squinting, no driving/ reading with glasses anymore.The procedure is painless (although a bit uncomfortable) but takes less than 15 minutes. Try it!

• What sunglasses are good for people with long eyelashes?

  It is quite annoying for people with long eyelashes to wear sunglasses,they will they keep batting against the glasses. It is better for you to choose big sunglasses which can stay far away from the eyelashes. Try different type and styles to find the most comfortable one.

• What should I expect to experience during the Lasik Surgery?

  A numbing drop will be placed in your eye, the area around your eye will be cleaned, and an instrument called a lid speculum will be used to hold your eyelids open.Your doctor may use a mechanical microkeratome (a blade device) to cut a flap in the cornea.If a mechanical microkeratome is used, a ring will be placed on your eye and very high pressures will be applied to create suction to the cornea.Your vision will dim while the suction ring is on and you may feel the pressure and experience some discomfort during this part of the procedure. The microkeratome, a cutting instrument, is attached to the suction ring. Your doctor will use the blade of the microkeratome to cut a flap in your cornea. Microkeratome blades are meant to be used only once and then thrown out. The microkeratome and the suction ring are then removed.Your doctor may use a laser keratome (a laser device), instead of a mechanical microkeratome, to cut a flap on the cornea.If a laser keratome is used, the cornea is flattened with a clear plastic plate. Your vision will dim and you may feel the pressure and experience some discomfort during this part of the procedure. Laser energy is focused inside the cornea tissue, creating thousands of small bubbles of gas and water that expand and connect to separate the tissue underneath the cornea surface, creating a flap. The plate is then removed.You will be able to see, but you will experience fluctuating degrees of blurred vision during the rest of the procedure. The doctor will then lift the flap and fold it back on its hinge, and dry the exposed tissue.
