Does LASIK eye surgery work for people with a stigmatism?

I would like to get contacts, but I think the LASIK will pay off in the end (i.e not having to constantly buy new contacts the worse my eyes get over time)



How much will it cost per eye and how long SHOULD it last? (my mom's failed after 10 years)Does LASIK eye surgery work for people with a stigmatism?
Lasik eye surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her dental implants and Lasik surgery in India by a company called Indian Health Guru Consultants. The Price for dental and Lasik surgery is very less in India. She paid 25% of the price she was quoted in America.



Indian Health Guru Consultants 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.

Hope this helps.Does LASIK eye surgery work for people with a stigmatism?
LASIK eye surgery is generally considered to be a safe and effective method of treating near-sightedness, far-sightedness, and astigmatism and millions of people undergo this procedure every year throughout the world.

No surgery is without risks or complications, however, and this must be understood and accepted before making the decision.

The most common side effects of LASIK eye surgery are dry eyes and glare. The incidence of these are debated between proponents and opponents of the surgery. The FDA considers the risks to be low enough to approve the technology required for LASIK (microkeratomes, excimer lasers, etc.)

Safety can be increased by selecting a skilled surgeon using the best technology. Studies show that experience is one of the most important factors in selecting a surgeon.



There is a really good San Diego Lasik website that has lots of info and some very informative Lasik articles. See the links below:

You can certainly get Lasik with Astigmatism.



Expect around $1K, but lasik costs vary across various geographies and doctors.



I've created a blog with info on the types of procedures, doctor recommendation, and complication rates: http://www.wika-lasik.com
I had my eyes done two years ago after wearing contact lenses for 15 years and i used to have astigmatism too !

it's the best thing I have ever done ;)

I'm afraid I can't help you with the cost cause I'm from a another country.. and prices differ ..

But be sure to choose a well known doctor and hospital or medical center and follow the doctor's instructions carefully and as for your mothers it sometimes happens and she should go and do them again

I know a lot of people who did

good luck :)
