Thinking about laser eye surgery. There's 2 types Lasik and Lasek. I'd probably get Lasek as it's the cheaper one.
I have some questions, can someone who has personally had it done please help a brother out.

With me hating things close to my eye or in my eye.. how do you not flinch and/or pull away?

Can you feel and/or see the thing that cuts the layer of skin on the eye that flaps back?

Cheers

Im sure all these simple kinds of questions would be more then appropriate to ask the nurses/doctor before the surgery begins if you dont get any good advice to follow here by the way. Im the same way and at 24, i have had 10+ eye surgeries due to terrible eyes and diabetes lol. It never gets easier either. Honestly just try to stay still as best you can and maybe throw some music on. Im sure any way to get your mind off of it, would be the best bet.

I heard from somebody who got it done (not sure which one exactly) that they numb your eyes or give you something to make it so you dont get the urge to blink ? I forget but she also mentioned its quick like 15 minutes.

I would deff ask the doctor you're thinking about getting it at all these questions so they can go into it with more detail.

Good luck !
