I was 35 when I had mine done. Before that, everything farther away than six inches was blurry, so I didn't want monovision. Reading glasses? Compared with 28 years of wearing Coke-bottle lenses, I won't mind if it comes to that.

Rockville Center

I would ONLY suggest the Rockville or Annapolis Centers and you can expect approx $4000 total for 2 eyes depending on your situation. If you have a far-sighted eye, your prices increase.

one thing you need to be aware of = over 70% of far-sighted cases have to be redone within 3 years - there is a new procedure awaiting FDA approval that is being conducted in Europe that will be as effective for far-sighted eyes in the not-so-distant (excuse the pun ) future.

Can't help with the cost...my husband gets it free through the Navy, and is currently waiting for it to get done. He isn't sure if it will be the lasik or PRK. I believe his brother got it done for a couple thousand.
