Hell no they didn't. I would never have wasted that kind of money for that short of a timeline without googles. 10 years yes, but not 4-5. I just use my handy dandy magnifying glass!

All I know is that I used to be scared shitless If I was in his car at night. He had glasses on but still had a hard time seeing. I haven't been freaked out driving with him since he got the surgery

I got the Lasik because I couldn't see far away. And as Rivergames stated, like his dad, while driving I would miss streets and my night vision was not so good. Having the Lasik fixed that, but immediately took away my close up vision, therefore I had to wear reading glasses for about 4 months. Doctor said while doing the Lasik my pupils kept moving. After that everything was good and I was satisfied but never did achieve 20/20 vision. I'm sure it has to do with looking at my phone all the time and straining my eyes. But it just sucks because I think I may have to get some reading googles in the near future to compensate.

I have always had to have some kinda correction (glasses or contacts) for distance sight, but lately I am carrying cute little purple readers in my purse for menus. Don't need it on my phone cuz I figured out how to make my text font super big so I can read it and so can the people behind me at the beer store.

I'm blind as a bat and have worn contacs for years... I really should have lasik, but the thought of someone digging in my eyes freaks me out! I bought the lowest possible readers earlier this year, at the suggestion of my eye doctor, and they're way to strong.

I am with you there!! About 9 years ago I had wore my contacts to a race and walked behind the boat while it was running. Unburnt fuel made my contacts stick to my eyeball. Our team owner Jack wanted to peel em off my eyeball with long tweezers that came outta the tool box. I told him hell no! Went to the eye doc and she used long tweezers to get em out. Do not like the sight of something coming towards my eyeball!!!!
