1-I had mine done in San Diego, but there are NUMEROUS surgeons in this city. Look at http://www.lasik-surgery-san-diego.info/
2-The surgery was completed in one day
3-It can take up to 6 months for complete healing
4-Lasik surgery is completely available for those wihth astigmatism
5-Prices range according to each specific patient and surgeon
Nancy thought i would just say…..i had an eye removed and i too ask alot of people what i could expect even after talking to my surgeon.i found that while its good to ask other people please remember that everyone responds to any change to their bodies in difference ways. you didn’t say what kind of surgery you are having. I’m not a doctor but i can say its great to have a support team you can talk with. 3 things to do 1- get more then one opinion. 2- is it necessary. and 3- do you trust your doctor..you can also go to MD.com…. i wish you well
Laser eye surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her dental implants and lasik surgery in India by a company called Forerunners Healthcare. The Price for dental and lasik surgery is very less in India. She paid 25% of the price she was quoted in America.
Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India They arrange Dental surgery, jaw surgery, lasik eye surgery, Dental Implants etc for foreign patients in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines- about their patient stories.
They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as dental and eye surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
