Yes .. without my glasses, i am partially handicapped. I remember how i would fret ..when i travel .. and had to make sure that i had back up pairs of glasses with me. And also looked a wee bit silly having to swim with my glasses.. when i was younger.. and didn’t know about prescription goggles. For people like me Lasik may be the alternative of expensive glasses and lenses .. and those goggles. I hear that the success rate for Lasik is like 99.9% and very safe.
