Contact lenses and glasses are not impossible to wear during sports activities, but it definitely is challenging. Lasik surgery offers you a whole new way to enjoy playing your favorite sport. No more ugly strap on your glasses or having a contact pop out at an inopportune moment (not that there is a good time for your contact to pop out). If you’re traveling to one of those sporting events you will no longer have to take a long a backup pair of glasses or contact lenses just in case. And how tired are you of putting drops in your eyes because of dried out contacts?
With the expense of glasses and contact lenses no longer an issue, your Lasik surgery will pay for itself in no time at all. It’s always possible that your insurance may cover it as well, but check before you count on that. If the money savings isn’t enough remind yourself of the inconveniences that glasses and high maintenance contact lenses present. No more cleaning, storing, or misplacing. And imagine opening your eyes in the morning and actually being able to focus on your surroundings; a beautiful sunrise, the person you love lying next to you. And no more stumbling around until you find your glasses. No more finding them the wrong way (you know that awful crunching sound when you sit on the couch or step down with your foot before really looking… Makes you sick just thinking about it doesn’t it?)
Now Lasik surgery isn’t for everyone; some people are not appropriate candidates and will not benefit from the surgery. Check with your doctor.
