28 years of painful contacts and heavy glasses. Had an incredibly bad set of eyes from birth with the dream of one day waking up and being able to see.Prayers answered when I met Dr. Barker who was extremely kind and informative about the entire process. Obviously, your vision is kind of a big deal and he helped me feel secure in my decision to have frickin laser beams blast my eyeballs.If you are considering lasik, do it. I sat down on the table only able to see maybe 6 inches in front of my face and when I stood up, I could see my moms face from across the room.Life. Changing.
