I decided not to. I like the protection glasses give and also the risk/versus reward is too high for me to go through with laser surgery.



What is the risk and how high is it? That they botch up the surgery or the eye doesn't heal or something? I would get Lasik or something like that, but this risk is exactly what stops me, and glasses aren't that big of a problem really.




It's very low.  Lasik has been around forever, I got mine done almost 15 years ago.  I had absolutely zero complications whatsoever.  Usually the worst case is some dry eye and a bit of blurred night vision.

After learning to see in the dark, and with night vision and excellent hand eye coordination, there is no way you are going to touch my eyes.

Eyes are the last place I want to have any damage in. Something irrepearable damage happening to my eyes terrifies me. There's a reason people are tortured in the eyes. Skip to 1:40 :


But I should probably research this at some point in the future, because it would be nice to not need glasses to see. I am near sighted as well.

Yes but even if my eyes are taken I can still see.


They'd have to take my whole head off to stop that.
