• How can I prevent my makeup from coming off when I wear sunglasses?

  Maybe you should use some good-quality cosmetic which will stay firmly on your face no matter what happens .

• Why does your vision need to be stable before having lasik surgery?

  If you get lasik surgery before your vision be stable, your vision will continue to change even after the surgery. On that condition, you will have to wear glasses again, or do the lasik surgery again. If your cornea is thick enough, you can have the chance to do the lasik surgery, but if not, you don't have the chance, that is to say ,you have to wear glasses in your rest of life. Take a careful consideration before any lasik surgery.

• How do you think of lasik surgery?

  I believe the biggest benifits is to correct your vision and you will never wear glasses or contacts. I spent $2300 on my lasik surgery and I used to spend $400 on my contact lenses and $300 eyeglasses each year. I don't have to spend much money on the glasses, Furthermore, it is more convenient, I can sleep 10 mins more in the moring which is used to wearing contacts lenses,lol.

• What medical insurance is best to get if you want lasik surgery?

  Some of the insurance would cover the lasik surgery, but at present, most LASIK suegeries are not fully covered by any insurance. Ask your insurance company if it is available, if so, you should pay the full amount to the lasik ceter first and then they will give you a receipt to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

• Can I still ride a roller coaster after LASIK surgery?

  If you are involved in activities and sports where trauma to the face and eyes is very likely, such as a professional fighter, then Lasik may not be appropriate because of the high probability that you will suffer blows to the eye. Even if a problem is unlikely, it seems prudent to consider Lasik alternatives such as PRK, LASEK, and Epi-Lasik. These techniques, commonly known as surface ablation, do not require the Lasik flap. The patient will have a much longer vision recovery and more discomfort, but laser vision correction without a flap is available.

• What is the recovery time after lasik surgery for my vision to be 100%?

  The recovery time differs from different people. Ones specific physical quality determined how and how quickly their eyes adjust to the changes made by the surgery. But if you cannot get 100% vision after 3 days, please go back to your doctor.

• What is the difference between Lasik and Laser Eye Surgery?

  The only real difference between Lasik and Lasek eye surgery is the way in which the eye is accessed during the procedure. During the Lasik procedure it is your inner cornea that is lasered and the surgeon needs to lift off the top layer of tissue in order to access the correct part of your cornea. A flap is created which essentially means a thin outer layer of your cornea is lifted away. Once the surgeon has applied the laser this flap is then replaced and left to heal. With Lasek however there is no flap created. The surgeon merely loosens the top layer of your cornea and moves it to one side. Once the laser has been applied this outer layer (epithelium) is replaced back and the eye is left to heal.

• How do I loosen the hinge on sunglasses?

  If the hinge is stiff and hard to move , it is possibly because the screw is abraded and lose its flexibility. It is better for you to replace a new one. Remove the old screw with a thin-blade and insert a new one in the same size.Then tighten the screw until the frame is secure, but don't over tighten in case you could strip the screw.
