Laser eye surgery risks vs costs?

Im interested in laser eye surgery but am not convinced by the adverts.

i see “£395 per eye” but in closer examination it comes out more like £1500 per eye!

A very big sum for most people im sure you would agree for a “2 min procedure” as they love to tell us!

has anyone had this done & did they think it was worth the money?

I hate anyone even touching my eyes & the thought of being blinded while paying vast sums of cash out fills me with dread!

Answer:
Yeah, I think the cheap prices are only for the most easy prescriptions. I had Lasik a month ago and I paid $3000 total or 1500 per eye. I think it was worth it. It depends on how much your glasses/contacts annoy you in your daily life.

Answer:
I decided against this too some years back, like you I was afraid of things going wrong.

Apparently they have got it right these days but I'd still be nervous. Plus I am in my late 60s and for the past four years my short-sitedness has improved so much so that on a bright sunny day I don't need glasses and it makes me wonder what would have happened now if I'd had them corrected.

Answer:
I paid $4800 total in 2006…so I guess about 2400 pounds. Your eyes are not something you go cheap on.
