My LASIK eye surgery – All Laser, no blades. Terrifying, but worth it!!!
Contact us to Add Your Hospital
It was terrifying at the time, but I'm really happy with the results. The procedure was done at the Maloney Institute in Los Angeles, CA.
How it works: In a nutshell: Using a laser they cut a flap into the top layer of my cornea, peel it away momentarily, use a laser shape the cornea underneath the flap, then fold the flap back over, and voila! I could see!
Big thanks to Dr. Maloney and his team. 2+ years later and my vision is better than 20/20 (20/15) 🙂
Hey everyone, thanks for watching! Never expected this video to blow up like it has. Seriously…who knew?!
If you have more questions about LASIK, l made 2 other videos: Top 7 Questions About LASIK, and my girlfriend’s experience with LASIK. Check em out!
Lastly, to all of you saying I sound like Michael Reeves or remind you of Nevel from ICarly??? I’m flattered and offended. Mostly offended. Y’all are savage.
Really good! Still seeing 20/20 after all these years
@Christopher Laxamana how is your eyesight now
Does it hurt qwq
Dead space flashbacks
…girlfriend ?
All i see is that final destination scene
YES.
The lasers used in lasik are not that kind of laser, it doesn’t even go deep into the eyeball lol. You’re thinking of cutting-grade lasers, not excimer lasers
On my life bro??
I love the final destination 4 XD there some things going on
Frrr lol

@Mitchell Mcclinton and you’re dumb
@Kakaga Kakerger how am i dumb
@Mitchell Mcclinton cus it is what it is
“I can read that sign”
Me : “cries in 240p”

I was so shy about accepting that I watch yt videos at 240p until I read this comment section
@THE ICONIC then maybe dont point anything out you branded troglodyte

I want lasik, but at the same time this looks terrifying
Dont get it
@DI弓HONOR D what I said is completely true and supported by science. It is also the reason why they don’t accept everybody, but only people with thick enough corneas. People can do what they want, but they should be informed of the risks before they go through with such procedures.
@pdorism wtf u talking about? Where did u get that information??? Stop scaring people with bs like that. The cornea is the fastest healing part of the entire body and it fully binds itself in minutes! Thats y they ask u to wear those glasses so u dont scratch the eyes for sometime, and ease the problem of no dilation due to the eye drop used before hand. Stop spreading false information!
The drops they put it numbs the pain so you wont feel pain
@pdorism what really!! This is good information thanks, what is prk?
I tried giving my self laser eye surgery with a laser from the dollar store.
*It didn’t go too well*
Oh no-

Budum tss

I read that seconds before he said that

Imagine the first ever patient on whom lasik was done. He must’ve been either the bravest guy in the whole world or he was just a prison experiment :/
The first human to get PRK (precursor to lasik) was someone with a type of eye cancer who was going to have to get her eyes removed anyways.
@XxBuzz Gaming deez nuts
@XxBuzz Gaming pig eye structures are actually very similar to humans so using them you can feel how the lazer can impact the eye depending on what you do with the lazer
@XxBuzz Gaming WHA-! we both have been confused there ?? also sorry
@UNIMINE Oh LMAO. I thought you were shap anthony. I seemed to have confused the usernames. Sorry!!
the worst part would be not being able to blink
You literally don’t notice that at all. By far the worst part is the suction device that makes the flap. Everything else is a 0/10 pain/discomfort.
Llama_Is_Cool Yeet they squirt saliva
Dry eyes ;-;
They hold open your eyelids
The eye still creates teardrops but you won’t feel anything because your eye is like dead for a short period of time
The only thing that looks painful is when they slice the membrane of your eye so they can point a laser at it
@BaldManLogan yeah well, you permanently lose innervation, which can cause dry eyes, aka having to use artificial tears for the rest of your life. Also lose structural integrity, which can cause keratoconus. And finally the flap can reopen from physical trauma, which makes it not advisable to take part in some sports. Plus you can get halos. Overall, I think it’s better to go with PRK and avoid the flap.
@pdorism that’s a good thing. If it did fully heal, you would be seeing through a giant scar of collagen for the rest of your life
@Victoria Tran if a doctor feels a sneeze coming, they aren’t going to keep the knife next to your eyeball
Guys try this it really improves eyesight. Check comments for proof. https://youtu.be/6rRNhmfOIy0
@Khway actually it never fully heals. Only the border seals up but the inside of the flap remains disconnected
I got sweaty and literally started crying. Can’t finish but I’ll leave a like. You’ve earned it
??? well, glad to hear it took you on a journey!
I got mine like 5 days ago, I was so chill that the doctor said “I wish you had a third eye”
@Brendan O’Brien my surgeon said the laser detects the smallest movements so quickly that it shuts off before your eye can even move enough to cause damage
@Cameron George yeah i’ll just choose general everytime i have the chance since the tought of sharp stuff touching my internal organs makes me sick
@Cameron George Haha that’d be pretty unfortunate to be honest
@Cameron George BRUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
@LegendaryHunter The stuff numbs your eye so you wouldnt feel a thing
That nurse is so wholesome laughing at each of their dumb jokes ❤
u mean annoying
They’re pretty good jokes ngl. Best way to lighten the mood especially before a surgery like that
I love that theyre laughing and how he’s staying positive the whole time, wish I had someone like that whenever I go to the hospital.
The doctor is feeling like he’s doing a heist in gta 5
Maybe u should do an eye operation too oh wait u dont have a right eye
Every body gangsta until the surgeon leaves the heist.
Me: Oh maybe this won’t be so ba-
Eye gets suction cupped
