I had horrible vision (seriously, I couldn't see the big "E" on the eye chart...you know, the HUGE one that takes up the whole screen). At one point during my teen years I was told my vision in my really bad eye was 20/800. Oy.Anyway, I got LASIK two and a half years ago and I've been 20/15 ever since. It changed my life...although my stomach still gets weak when I think about "cornea flaps".-Al I’m part of the LASIK train, too.

I had my eyes fixed 3 years ago, after 20 years of wearing glasses and contact lenses. Really, it's stupid to wait. Keith is right – check out LASIK!

For glasses? No way!What ever happened to 1 hour opticians? I get mine from glassesdirect.co.uk 'cos I'm cheap but most places here in the UK will do you glasses while you wait.Im suprised that you have to wait so long for them. “You’ll see it for first time when I get them in another week or so.”

I had my eyes lasered in 2001 after a lifetime of glasses and contacts. It's the best money I've ever spent and I still have better than 20/20 vision 5+ years later. It’s time for LASIK.

I'm due for new lenses. I tend to like Brooks brothers frames myself (I'm a conservative guy or traditional if you will with clothing) also a big fan of zeiss lenses and frames. Best of luck!
