Lasik Eye Surgery in 6 Minutes
This is the Science Friday (National Public Radio) video about LASIK eye surgery. The funny thing about this video is that the narrator, who is probably also the producer, is a lot more nervous about LASIK laser vision correction than the patient himself. He is cool as a cucumber, I had LASIK myself, didn’t think it was a big deal and now I see fantastic. The video features Steven Vale, MD, medical director of Acuity Laser Eye & Vision Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Dr. Vale is one of the most well-respected and experienced Lasik surgeons in the world. Dr. Vale has performed over 21000 laser vision correction surgeries. Dr. Vale’s ability and experience really comes out in this otherwise realistic and detailed glimpse at the world of laser vision correction surgery.

i have a question??? do u do it to both eyes or one eyes!
3:20 ahhhhhhhhhhh
This is nasty but veryyy interesting.
omg. wat if the flap unfolds wen you blink!!
wow
I’m thinking of taking LASIK when I’m older. Maybe when I’m around my 30s. I’m only 14 right now so I don’t have to really worry about it. Hopefully LASIK will improve in the future and be more reliable.
My only question is that is there ANY pain? No pain at all? Just looking at this makes my eyes dry and makes me feel sick.
DOES IT HURT? thats what im afraid of and being able to see those things coming in ur eye….gross
omfg it looks so bad …. but i wear glass and am short shighted so i really wana get this done….awh thats weird when he poke it ahhhhh
haha terrible graphics on the video, but otherwise very informative and helpful. My surgery’s a week away and my surgeon is similarly well qualified – can’t wait!!
To anyone considering it, go for your consultation. If they’re as reputable and honest as where I’m going then they’ll cover all the questions being asked in these comments that Proc is answering very well.
Wish me luck
Great video and nice to get info from patients directly. Check out our channel for more info on anything related to laser eye surgery.
Only if you’re keen, that is
Does it Hurt not to Blink O.o
i wanted to make this surgery..but im scared now. does it hurt?
Excellent Video! I don’t believe any of that Mumbo Jumbo about how bad Lasik is. After all, they wouldn’t be in business anymore if it was that horrid. Very eye-opening!!! video. Get it? Eye-opening? XD. I will definitely get this when i’m done growing. My doctor said that at 18 I would be done growing and it would be okay. Opportunity of a lifetime! Amazing would technology can do these days!
i had this kind of operation. you keap your eye still by not moving it. the imediate effect is great . you see like with a new eye !!! it;s great
operation made in romania
eeeek looks scary. I know youre awake but like…woah!! how do u not blink or flinch or anything like that? I know you got those wires and all that but can u see them cutting or…here i got a better question. Can you tell me what it is like? My friend is getting this soon and I am very curious of the procedure

omg im going on this surgery but im scaaared…
when they whip your eye with the spong like thing is that wetting it so it feels like you blink im thinking of having this but dont like the idea of having my eye opened that wide for along time and feeling like i need to blink
message back plz thanks
if anyones had it done can anyone tell me wat its like and wat it feels like cause im a scared but i want it done
Can you take this treatment after 40? or you can take at any age?
im 25 and i had 2 surgeries when i was 18, i had my right eyes crossed in… after the 2nd surgery my eyes are still crossed but its looking outside and not inside.. i wonder how much is it to get it corrected and to have 20/20.. my left eye is good… the problem is my right eye… im locatred in philadelphia and i just talked to someone in the office to get an consultation
how do they manage not to blink? and does it hurt (at all)??????????
doesnt that hurt
Huh, I hoped by facing my fear of this I’d be a bit more interested in going through with it. I’m not. I’d have a terrible time to overcome the urge to move my eyes away from blades and crap like that. I’m still amazed my father did it.
