Heard a local ad yesterday for $499/eye.

I'm having trouble with my new soft contact lenses. My correction is really strong, so I'm not sure if Lasik is appropriate for me.

Getting the best doctor available would be important for me.

I don't think I would ever get the nerve up to get surgery on my eyes to correct vision. Once its done you can't reverse it.

I just need glasses for reading and computer work. I use Nikon office lenses in my glasses, high quality. I am fine for driving still 20/15. The only thing I hate about glasses is when you get a new prescription, everything is all out of whack, until your eyes get use to the new glasses.

I also carry a pair of cheap drug store reading glasses (below) when I am out, don't want to take my expensive ones out in case something happens to them.

Magnivision Titanium Reader (only 30 dollars for these ones on Amazon)

I've thought about going in to see if I'm a candidate for the Lasik surgery. I really don't like to wear glasses.
