Like I said I wanted to keep an eye on the doctor. The guy from Duck Dynasty went into the dentists to get a crown filled, next thing you know theres pictures of his wiener floating around Ouachita Parish! That will not happen to me

Dr. Fay Woo
She did mine in 2000. Had an issue when they went to cut the lense flap, instument moved and they had to reset it. That eye was bloody for several months. Had 20/15 until a year or so ago, at 20/20 now and about to turn 42 so it was well worth it to me. Bladeless wasn't an option when I had mine done but i would have done it if it was. Eye surgery isn't something I was looking to get a deal.

I had it scheduled last month, did all the pre-op shit, show up the day of and they tell me to go home because the hard drive died in the laser. I got them to refund me and I've put it off for now.

The moral of the story is that the Doc is probably 70% certain to frick up. Start watching all of your favorite movies, watch as much porn as you can, go to as many LSU games as possible, strip clubs, etc....you want to see as much good as possible before you're blind
I'll take my chances, which would be much less than 70% of messing up if I pay more. I'm willing to do that since I'm already blind as hell (-6.50) and it'll only get worse whe I'm older. Plus, contacts and glasses for -6.5 are expensive!

Dr. Woo did my Lasik. She loved me long time after Seriously she is great and I would trust her completely with this type of surgery. Start taking flax seed now. You'll be taking that stuff from now till forever

You have to go get screened to see if you are a candidate but it's not going to help with those issues at all ( welcome to 40 something)

I hope she knew what she was doing. How surprised were you when she just randomly started performing eye surgery on you?
