Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I figured this was better than starting a new thread and wasting everyone's time.
I haven't gone for a consultation yet, and I'm a bit apprehensive. I hate wearing glasses or contacts, and I only use them occasionally (driving, watching movies or hockey, playing hockey, etc.) I think laser eye surgery might be a good option, but I obviously need to kow a bit more about it.
My Rx is only -1.5 in each of my eyes. Has anyone out there had laser eye surgery for a low Rx like this? If so, what was your experience? Does a low Rx reduce the effects of star bursts and such?
Also, does anyone know about the long-term effects in terms of needing reading glasses when older? Would it be pronounced with my type of Rx?
Also, is anyone in Vancouver and could you recommend a good place to look into the procedure?
