Clear Vision Finally
Finally, I had an ilasik surgery at Optimax @ Jln Yap Kuan Sek. I had wanted to do this for quite sometimes. Finally, I free myself from contact lenses & glasses :-)
Before surgery:
I called Optimax to set appointment for free eye screening. Here, an optometrist will check your eyes & will inform u about you eyes conditions, what kinda treatment is suitable etc
Then had to lay off contact lenses for 2-3 weeks. For me I laid off for 3 weeks.
On surgery day:
Had my eyes checked by the doctor that will actually operate my eyes.
I decided to do a conventional iLasic where doc cuts my cornea with a very thin blade. Then use laser tu correct my eye sight. Very quick surgery, only a few minutes for both eyes.
Since eyes were made numb during surgery, I basically do not feel any pain. Just feel pressure when cutting my cornea. The nurse was nice to hold my hand during surgery. A bit scary coz I can basically see what the doctor is doing.
After surgery:
I was in lots of pain. Actually, xla sakit sgt. Rase mcm mase potong bawang jer. Tp endlessly. Tu yg xtahan tu. Tears keep on running down. So I took pain killer & slept for 5 hours. When I wake up at 8pm. I can see quite clearly :-)
How much did this cost me? Well, not much for a person who cant see without a glasses. Rm5k for this more & easier life is worth every cent.
What I like about Optimax, they never pressure u to do surgery. Even on my surgery day they never ask me to make payment first. My supplimentary credit card was rejected & they even let me do surgery first! Then hubby had to make payment on behalf of me :-)
