Cobra Kai

After growing up wearing glasses, and now wearing soft contacts for decades, I can't ever see myself going the surgery route.

My wife's uncle is a prominent ophthalmologist who still practices at age 83 and has like 55 years experience. When I first met him in 2014, I saw that he wears glasses, and I asked if he recommends corrective surgery.  He replied that he'd never get it and never recommends it because things can go wrong. Some people experience horrible pain the rest of their lives after getting it done. Of course this is just the advice of ONE eye doc -- admittedly at the end of his career.  But he's the smartest person in my family. He graduated summa cum laude with a BS in Physics and went to medical school.

I had RK done in, lessee '95.  That's Knives not Lasers.  It was Fantastic!,...Lasted for decades too, but eventually my eyesight went down a bit on its own and I wear glasses (minor "progressives").  I asked about LASIK to correct a mild astigmatism in one eye but the doc said it was too minor to worry about...
