[quote=Stradivarius]I do qualify for phakic IOL but since it has only had approval in this country since 2003, I’m not ready to do it yet, personally. But it’s all risk:benefit. If at some point I can’t wear contact lenses comfortably, certainly I would consider it. But for now my eyes are healthy (near-sightedness is not pathology), so I’m not fixing it if it ain’t broke.[/quote]
FYI, I had this done last year and couldn’t be more pleased. I wasn’t a candidate for Lasik either due to complete-nerdy-coke-bottle-nearsightedness and my correction was too great. While it hasn’t had approval as long, the surgery is the same as long time proven cataract surgery with less risk since you are not removing the natural lens. And it’s reversible.
I have used it a few times with success. The majority of the deals just aren’t a match for me either because of location or interest but every once in a while something good comes up.
