I was stalking through kittie's posts (<3) and found a thread on Lasik surgery.. and

[silentjohn]

Just fyi, a lot of common vision ailments can be solved naturally through exercises involving the muscles that surround your eyeball.

I;ve been working on correcting mine for awhile (though not as completely and earnestly as I "should"... as prescribed by the exercise routines) and it really does work.

Some things about vision that may be fucking up your eyesight:

Emotional/Mental/Physical problems.. ie stress, so on..
Using one eye more than another, rather than in harmony
bad habits involving computers/tv/reading
not blinking enough

The list goes on..

There are many products and online resources with the exercises and information.

About eyeglasses - they essentially lock your eyes into where they are @, preventing any healing.

Get you some infos before you go lazering layers off your eye, which you can never replace.. Because you won't heal the underlying problems causing the bad eyesight.. fucked up IMO. And if you do.. uh oh bad vision again.

weirddd.

bad habits involving computers/tv/reading

ROFL there goes my vision forever, I guess.
I have horrible, horrible vision. I have to wear either my contacts or glasses or I can't distinguish one object from the next 2 feet away. It's seriously really bad, and I wear contacts all the time so I guess that doesn't help. I've been wearing either contacts or glasses for more than 8 years and I seriously think LASEK is the only thing that can help. I have some blinging specs though and I do enjoy wearing them on occasion.

Oh man, that sucks. I was ready to wife you but now that I know our kid would be blind, I'm reconsidering.

Dudes have healed their vision from near total blindness with bates methods etc.

When on computer, every 15 mins look out into the perspective at 5 different points.. for example.


it is very hard at first, but then you experience moments of perfect vision..
and then you notice that those moments of perfect vision become EVEN MORE clear, and things like perspective and depth return.. and even more vivid colors etc.. then those moments of vision begin to last longer and longer..

Sunlight is also very important in healing your eyesight (candlepower)

[silentjohn]

1 of the best tips is to embrace your "bad" vision.. Accept where it is, first of all.. with compassion. It sounds fruity to some but w/e. You have to realize where you are at and accept it to progress.

If you spend all your time h8ing your sight for example, no wonder it won't improve.

this thread is very awkward it is making me uncomfortable reading it

wtf h8ers

its true! lolrorlrorlrol


also be ready to realize what you have been "not seeing"

kittie is hip to alex grey scene so she might dig what thats about idk

[kittie]

You're probably right.. it's worth a shot.
From the time I was in 5th grade-9th grade, I had awful insomnia bouts and would sit at my computer all night looking at tiny code/making graphics/talking to people with similar sleeping habits. I read almost every night and I usually read by candle light and I would always have my contacts in or wear my glasses and never let my eyes adjust to the current setting on their own.
Though, my cousin and my aunt had the procedure done and they both have perfect vision/no side effects.

thats cool but their eyemuscles are fucked for instance and stuck that way.

Basically your eye is squished like a football if you are near sighted (like me)

and the other way for far-sighted..

maybe IDK about lasik enough to rant bout it

But I reckon if they ever heal their eye physiology, the lasik procedure will thus be mis-calibrated.

LASEK

SHUT UP
GET OUT MY TRAD->

[kittie]

this thread is very awkward it is making me uncomfortable reading it

weirdest thread I've ever read, I must say.

[UnluckyXIII]

SHUT UP
GET OUT MY TRAD->

I'm just saying look at the comparison. LASIK is clearly the better option.

[silentjohn]

wtf its just a thread

[silentjohn]

Go ahead and get lasik/lasek and dont address the root causation of the bad vision. Spend lots of money for the quick fix and live life blissfully ignorant.

It makes total sense..

:\













NOT

[kittie]

Oh. I thought you were correcting me. ;x
mah bad boo.
I will look into that...
The whole procedure/being awake during the entirety of it does sort of freak me out a bit.

[silentjohn]

What I'm saying is..pondeirng.. w/e


Is if someone can heal their vision naturally without surgery... right..

er..

damn

Ok so lets say one gets the surgery
and then later in life has profound healing that cures their vision ailments
(hypthetical situaiton)

Will the results of the surgery then be defunct, seeing as how it was calibrated for a particular set of vision attributes that would no longer be true to a set of eyeballs that had been healed/nurtured back to proper function?

[UnluckyXIII]

That's OK, you sort of freak me out a bit.

[kittie]

I've been considering it for awhile but never went through with it because I wanted to wait until I could see outcomes of past procedures/they've perfected the procedure/possibility of insurance covering it.. I'm still not going to jump at the opportunity to get it done immediately and I'll take into consideration what you said.
This thread is kind of creepy. nbd js

[Foq]

lasik is pretty good option

i always got all my drops and meds for it

[PikminGod]

PRK FTW

[HustlinSnow]

[PikminGod]

PRK, its likes lasek, but they dont cut pieces of your eye off ie better for you

You can get laser eye surgery more than once.

[daggy diamonds]

koin slapped me in the eye today

my eye is still bothering me, it isnt red anymore though

[PikminGod]

you can't safely jump out of an airplane after having lasek!!

[musicnerdanimals]

Also they don't cut off a piece of your eye and remove it. They peel back the cornea and then put it back down. It heals very fast.

[PikminGod]

*doesn't care cuz you still cant jump out of airplanes after hAving it...prk heal time 3 months lasik 6 months just fyi

[musicnerdanimals]

Holy shit i just came to the realization i don't know if I had lasek or lasik

[musicnerdanimals]

*doesn't care cuz you still cant jump out of airplanes after hAving it...prk heal time 3 months lasik 6 months just fyi

No heal time is 1-3 days. You put eyedrops in for 7. Checkup appointment at 1 month, another one at 1 year.

[musicnerdanimals]

*doesn't care cuz you still cant jump out of airplanes after hAving it...prk heal time 3 months lasik 6 months just fyi

Btw you can jump out of airplanes as a sky diver, but maybe not in the military if thats what you're saying. You just need to sign a consent form.

[PikminGod]

...i punch you in face

full heal time is 6 months, you can not do any high risk activities for 6 months due to relapses in vision, and the swelling in you eye and socket is slow to go down, any type of high pressure can pinch your ocular nerve no good...and if you were full cover goggles you *Can* jump but you gotta sign a consent form cuz its not safe!
