Eye Surgery Costs - What Eye Surgery Really Costs
Great that you at least research before going under the knife, or laser in this case...
The costs of eye surgery go far beyond the money you have to put on the table.
Prices usually range from $1,000 per eye with low level, mass-production surgeons, to around $5,000 for both eyes when you get an eye surgeon that knows what he is doing.
So, you either have the money to do that or you don't.
But what's the real cost of Eye Surgery? Money is one thing, but do you really understand what eye surgery costs in the long-run? Did your eye surgeon explain to you all the layers and facets that you have to take into consideration? How about an expected 3-6 months of red, dry, irritated, and itchy eyes.
You'll need to drop your eyes every couple of hours or so for months, just to keep the lubricated.
Is it a rare side-effect? No, it's very common, actually more common than not, because you have to keep your eyes open for an unnaturally long period.
They do that with shiny, little metal clamps that stick under your eye lids that pull your eyes open for 15 - 30 minutes or longer, depending on how long the procedure really takes on the day.
Did they mention what eye surgery costs in terms of freedom? You see, if you don't get rid of the underlying root cause of your eye problems, your conditions are likely to return.
It happens more often than eye surgeons and other official like to admit, but it's the exact reason why the FDA is actually investigating eye surgery again since 2008 in regards to its side-effects, and long-term effectiveness.
But why doesn't it last? Great question.
The reason is that we all have beliefs in our mind about what we should and what we shouldn't see, and how well our eyes function at what ago, time, etc.
These beliefs function much like a thermostat in an air-conditioning unit.
If you have that one set to 68 degrees and open the windows on a hot summer day, the thermostat will pick up the difference and kick in action to cool the room down.
The same happens in your mind.
We all have a "thermostat" installed in our mind that is set to "see blurry past 10 feet" or "can't read without glasses after 40", or something along those lines.
So what happens after eye surgery? Once you undertook eye surgery and the "thermostat" in your mind picks up that there is a difference between the installed program and what is happening in your life.
So it will kick into action and recreate the condition, so that the installed program is correct.
It's the exact same reason why you have to get stronger glasses so often because eye surgery is nothing other than permanent glasses flexed into your eyes.
And the price you really pay is that you are then stuck with glasses for the rest of your life 2, 3, 4 years after the procedure because your can only do eye surgery once.
So you coughed up a couple of grand, risked your eyesight, had to put up with red, dry, irritated, and itchy eyes for months, and are now more limited than ever.
That's the real price they don't emanation, do they.
What's the solution to avoid all eye surgery at all costs? You can improve your vision naturally all by yourself, despite the claims that it's impossible.
Yes, no research has ever proven natural vision improvement to work (that's only partly true, but for argument sake we use it, because it wasn't funded by some "research company" of the ophthalmic industry that wants you to buy glasses or eye surgery).
But what's more important is that there has really never been one study that has proven that it doesn't work.
