Eye Solution

It's that time of the year again where my eyeglasses need upgrading. I only just bought my eyeglasses 2 years ago. I have really sensitive eyes so I'm pretty afraid to use contact lenses. I've always dreamed of wearing blue contacts but then I'd probably look like an alien from outer space! Recently I found this brand new eyeglasses with special Transition lens but it's going to cost me around RM500! *heart pain* Why are good eyeglasses so bloody expensive these days??!

Maybe I should go for one of those LASIK treatments, which is also known as iLASIK. But the cost alone nearly gave me a heart attack. I've also heard some unpleasant stories about the iLASIK procedure. Anything to do with an operation is always risky and one that involves one's vision is definitely not to be taken lightly.

A study was done on contact wearers and it was discovered that they will spend more than USD20,000 over their lifetime! A lot of money I would say. On average it cost about USD5000 using the LASIK method which includes pre-surgery evaluation and post-surgery follow-up exams. Now, if you really compare the price in the long run, it is more cost saving undergoing the iLASIK operation once and for all rather than wearing glasses, contact lenses and all the cleaning solutions involved.

As for me, I am still weighing the pros and cons. I really want to have a perfect 20/20 vision again and chuck my eyeglasses for good!
