If i were you (or my wife who was -9.5 both eyes) i would make it a priority. Even being that far out of whack for her, they were able to get her to 20/40 without lenses. The place she went to allows for lifetime adjustments but she doesn't want to go through the dry eyes again and that's not enough of a hassle for lenses.

I'm lucky to be 20/15 with lenses and i can sleep in them for weeks at a time without issues. The lenses i picked up today are the first type that i've worn that are intended for extended constant use. So i'm hoping they'll be even more comfortable than the 1980 mkI lenses i was using.

Wow. That's pretty good. I should make it priority. I got bit by the mod bug hard after I got the E46 M3 about ten months ago. I paid for the lasik eye surgery a few times over in mods. LOL

I also have extended wear contacts and sleep in them for extended periods of time. The only time contacts really bug me is during allergy season. My eyes get dry and itchy. Gets very uncomfortable.

The Dr. who did Greg Maddox and Tiger did mine. Do not skimp on this....

I'd check craigslist for reputable surgeons however... Under the barter section...

I found one on craigslist. He's going to charge me $2k for the whole job. I don't even have to book an appointment with him. I'll just swing by his place after work and he can do it in his basement.

It's like skimping and getting the bargain crash helmet. A bad idea every day of the week.

silvergray545 - I was -4.5 in both eyes...couldn't see the odometer from the drivers seat without glasses or contacts.

shoei - I wasn't cheap, just had a $1,500 'discount' fall into my lap

My dentist when I was a kid had a sign on his wall (yes, it was etched in stone, cuz... old)...

It read:

Three Things Never to Buy On Sales
Parachutes
Fire Extinguishers
Dental Work

I think crash helmets and lasik also qualify. And vasectomies.

ASBSECU E93 don't fall for the trap, bro! She has horrible intentions. Ask me how I know.

Yeah, I'm the same way. It sucks. That's why I'm looking into Lasik.

Pics or vids showing said discount.

Yup... Just had a convo with someone asking me why I pay extra for a Shoei helmet... Can't put a cast on your head, I'd rather pay a little more and know exactly what I'm getting, which is pretty much hand crafted... Should google the production of a shoei helmet, it's incredible...

[ASBSECU E93]

OK!!! I'll share to prove I am not a cheap ass...

silvergray545 and shoei and jtodd_fl..... Fuq'rs!!!

I partially paid for my Lasik with employer stock options (1/2), and the remainder with my FSA.

I had the procedure the first week of January. I also had an annual health care plan that ran on a calendar year.

I was able to fully fund the FSA for the expense and pay this back over the 12 month year - interest free.

In the middle of the year - I left this particular company (Large Regional Bank) for another bank.

I had already advanced 100% of the FSA funds to pay for the procedure - but I had only paid back 1/2 of the money when I left....basically, the company wrote 100% of the remaining amount off against all the unclaimed/unused FSA funds.

Lesson here - sometimes it is better to be lucky than good

Ironically I'm eating an apple now...and it's Delicious

[ASBSECU E93]

silvergray545 - I am still 20/20 10 years after Lasik. For about the first 5 years - i could read most of the 20/15 line...
