I want to get LASIK, but my optometrist says that you should wait until you are 30, since then your eyes will stop changing and you will only need to do the surgery once (sometimes you can only do it once because of the thickness of your lens so you have to make it count).

I can't imagine waking up and being able to see, it would be such a miracle to me to be able to that. I have to keep everything on my nightstand and around my bed in the same place or I'll trip or can't find things.

My eyes are that bad, too, Noir. I've been wearing glasses since second grade. Of course, now I wear bifocals :(
