The doctor says that I can't get lasik because my eyes are still developing.

my brother got it...noticed VERY positive results within weeks of getting it done. I believe he said it takes a long time to FULLY heal, however...but it wasworth it to him
I'm not sure but I feel like I read that you have to get it touched up every one in a while, just to maintain the quality of the procedure.

I think most NTers are too young for the procedure anyways. I'm pretty sure it's aimed to people 35+

I think kdwallace is an eye doctor(or whatever they call them
)
PM him.
But yeah, I'd like to get this done as well.
As of know, I'm probably too young, but I will def. get this sometime in the future

my dude had it done and his insurance paid for a lot of it. If you feel like paying a little bit to see like a normal person then I think its gotta be worth it

This post made me want to check it out some prices.
Prices have been dropping. It's at about 1000 per eye for quality surgery.
Cheaper costs will give you crappier results, supposedly.
