[QUOTE="cwgrizz, post: 387001, member: 27017"] This has, to this point, been an interesting read. I like many have worn glasses/contacts for about 54 years. Glasses from 3rd grade to 9th, then contacts. Nearsighted. The part I hated about this the most was as a teenager, when I went swimming (glasses or contacts under water didn't cut it) I couldn't see what the girls looked like until I was too close to get away. Ha! To date I still wear hard contact lenses. As age as done to many parts of my body, my eyes now require reading glasses with the contacts for close up chores. I had thought about laser, but the thought of a screw-up and the halo effect that a friend of mine has after his surgery, made me think better of getting the surgery. Actually unless the surgery is absolutely necessary, I will stay away from the knife/laser. This includes the shoulder replacement the Doc says is the only option to eliminate pain. I told him as long as I can pop a pill to control the pain, I will keep what God gave me, thank you. Ha! I have found that welding, I can see better without the contacts or glasses. [/QUOTE]
