There's several reasons why I will probably never do lasik; 1) price 2) fear of it getting screwed up* 3) fear of it backfiring years after the fact* 4) I've been wearing glasses pretty much 24/7 since I was 8(as I'm basically legally blind without them^) so my face looks weird without them on, my eyes look all sunken in *honestly one of my greatest fears period is going blind as most of the things that bring me pleasure in life are sight based ^people have joked that when they try my glasses on that they can see the very fabric of space-time itself due to how strong my prescription is

drrockso20 posted:There's several reasons why I will probably never do lasik; All of that was definitely a concern. My heart was beating out of my chest during the procedure. A while ago I got really loving tired of constantly cleaning my glasses, and the dimples they make on my nose and behind the ears. The clinic I went to has a lifetime guarantee, which I think is worth a couple thousand for a lifetime of better than perfect vision. If my vision shifts in 10 years, they will re-correct it. And honestly the failure rates are so small, it's extremely unlike you'd go blind from it. I asked how many procedures they do in a day, and they said roughly 20. That means these fuckers are raking in around $70,000 on an average day.

I distinctly remember us going on a drive right afterwards and he was constantly saying things like "There are trees on top of that hill!"  Mine wasn't as bad as I only needed to start wearing glasses when I hit my early 40s but it was so fantastic when I got a sample of the right lenses for the first time. I don't know if lasik is an option for me, but I'm not going to do it yet. Maybe in a couple of years.

what i like about the subforums, is that we can have aggressive gatekeeping about absolute garbage that's different from the more popular absolute garbage, no matter what the subject matter is. if People keep on attacking that foundation it's bound to fall on their heads, and they're going to diggity die...

CineD has been a lot chiller nowadays. Still a bunch of smug posters that are way more bothered with "inconsistencies" than their filmcrit trappings would lead you to believe and that speak from a place of authority that not even Eisenstein has, but the chat thread is okay and the mods have been working towards detoxing what became a pretty toxic environment. It's mostly the superhero movie threads (and SW) that get out of hand. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk about CineD.

Well considering those are probably the threads most likely to bring in new posters they're not doing a great job of detoxing it, IMO.

Endgame owned and I like CD because I've learned a lot there but most of the people critiquing the movie so far haven't even seen it and are commenting on the spoilers they've read. I also finally watched Into the Spiderverse this weekend and it was incredible. Simultaneously a perfect family movie about growing up and a perfect superhero flick.

I got lasik several years ago, when 20/20 was a guarantee and 20/15 or better was "a possibility." I only got 20/20 from it but that was life changing by itself. The operation was kinda terrible for me though. When they were doing the pre-operation measurements of my eyeballs we discovered I needed my eyes numbed just to deal with the light from that hitting my eyes. The actual operation felt like looking at the sun to me. It didn't hurt, but my brain was screaming to look away from the light and the machine kept turning itself off because my eyes would move out of position. The surgeons said they'd never seen any eyes that sensitive before. Despite all that, I was up and waking around just fine 24 hours later and had normal vision for the first time in decades. If my vision falters I'd be willing to get it done again.
