Eye-glasses or contact lens or eye laski surgery?!
Question: which one do you prefer and why??
Answers: which one do you prefer and why??
most definatly lasic. its amazing. waking up and seeing the numbers on the alarm clock. lool. contacts are a hassle, they get dirty, cause irritation and u gotta remember to clean take off blah blah (i had them for 6 yrs) and glasses arent 2 great.. sorta ugly, u know?
but be warned!! overuse of contacts causes a deflation of the cornea. sort of like sleeping of a pillow, it becomes flattened and thinner at the front, which is bad if you ever want to get LASIC done. I'd suggest you take a look at that, especially if you have a genitically thin cornea 2 begin with. bc, you cant have the surgery done unless ur cornea is thick enough.
btw, in regards to LASIC surgery, u may want to take a look into getting it done outside of north america. a friend of mines got it done in canada for 3000 dollars, in eygpt its costs 1000 altogether and they have very good and technologically advanced machines. So you can get a plane ticket, SEE the world, and get your eyes done 3 in one ;)
again srry a side note. DO NOT GET LASER EYE SURGERY. its the older form of lasic, and it hurts like the dammed! LASIC is basically over night.

I had LASIK 3 years ago. It was the best thing I ever did. It's so nice not to have to worry about the hassle of contacts or glasses.
Glasses, its very confortable

I wear contacts.My eye's are natrually light brown But i wear blue or green contacts MOST of the time.I wear contacts because im SUPPOSE to be wearing glasses but i dont like glasses.
Use glasses 4 begginig and then use contacts. 3 years or something
lasik!
though it has risks, it's better cuz it's permanent and you don't have to wear anything!
but if it's between contacts and spectacles, then i'd choose specs because they're safer and do not have direct contact with your eyeball. this prevents the possible harmful bacteria or infections from infecting the eye.
I hear that LASIK is great but the only fall back is that your eyes are still changing and that you will need it done again if your prescription changes.
I want LASIK but I cant afford it right now.
i heard the surgery makes ur eyes good for a while then it just goes back to the way it was..i would opt for the safest--eyeglasses..contacts can be pretty dangerous if you forget to take it off and such. if it goes to the back of ur eye, you'll need surgery to get it out.
i love my contacts but when i'm about to go to bed i rely on my glasses. i am terrified of Lasik because i only have 1 set of eyes! It does not matter to me how many people have gotten it done and have successful results. With my luck i'd be the one it backfires on!
I've always preferred contact lenses, mainly because I have long eyelashes and I don't like the feeling of them brushing against my eye glass lenses, however, my boyfriend finds my glasses sexier, so I wear them to be appealing.
I would not go for Lasik. 50% of people who have this surgery revert back to their former eye problems within 5 years. You also have to consider that after the surgery, your pupil flattens making it next to impossible for a soft contact lens to adhere to your eye.

It would depend on the individual. Glasses are always a safe bet. But, my girlfriend had the surgery. She could not see enough to find her glasses. This was 5 years ago during the trials. To this day she has had no problem seeing. She is very glad she did it. The factor which would decide it for most is the cost factor. Glasses or contacts are cheaper. But if you want to look great and see great, spend the extra money and get the surgery.
Contacts are better because today just about everyone can wear contact lenses, and there are more healthful and convenient contact lens options than ever before. Contact lenses are used to correct the same conditions that eyeglasses correct. For all details, information and remedies about contacts check out http://use-contactlens.blogspot.com/
got glasses but rather have surgery
It depends on your age and the condition of your eyes. I'm in my late 40s so laser eye surgery really wouldn't benefit me. I have not needed to use reading glasses so far but if I got it done, then I would need them. I would be swapping one problem for another. Also, I suffer from dry eyes and that makes me a poor candidate because this procedure will make it worse.
I dont think I could handle lasik surgery so I am going to have to say contacts forever
