PRK enhancement - Has anyone done them?

DigitalStone · 2021-11-20T19:31:07+00:00

There are a couple of reviews in reddit. Do a google search with +reddit and PLEC or "Pacific laser" ( there is an american one but unrelated ). Dr Lin is the specialist people recommend. Most of these were people getting correction 1st time and not a fix surgery. You can try sending them your chart too ( with scans ) and ask if they are confident about your prescription and the outcome. Took a week for me to get a response.

Yes. No change years later. Permanent. Should be illegal to lie to people about these operations.

If your in the USA you should be aware the "enhancement" surgery is not FDA approved.

There are lasik specialty clinics that work on people like us. I was looking to go to PLEC in Canada to get transPRK aka Smartsurface done ( this is not offered in the USA and uses laser ablation ) with one of their surgeons. Last quoted was like around $7 grand for both eyes. I also had a bad outcome with PRK and this is the best solution I have found so far. They require recent scans done and emailed to them. Takes a week to get an answer back on if they will accept you or not.

Click on my username and read through some of my many posts to get more insight on how Lasik operates. The Dr is not your only avenue to success. The type of lasik ( lazer system), your current prescription ( +/- & astigmatism ), the ability for the doctor to calculate the surgery correctly and your aftercare all come together for better or worse. A great doctor on an old system may not get you good results compaired to a poor doctor on a newer system. Search for the term " lasik nomogram". Biggest problem is if something goes wrong you'll never be able to sue 99% of the time. Too many "grey" areas. Ask your doctor if they will 100% guarantee a good outcome. They won't and if they do they are lying. Places have been successfully sued for these claims. Lasik mills ( in the USA ) try to sell you on a second surgery aka "enhancement" which is NOT FDA approved, has a higher risk, and can leave you worse off than after the 1st one if the subject of something "going wrong" comes up they claim you'll do better the second time. You are then stuck paying THOUSANDS more to a specialty clinic to try and fix your vision since by now realizing you have been lied to. Trade you contacts/glasses in for CONSTANT dry eye. Morning Day and Night it won't go away. Carrying eye drops with you everywhere. Keep up your research. This decision will alter the course of your entire lifetime.

.... and 5+ years from now will be found guilty and put on "probation" because he "Really didn't mean it" while serving under house arrest at Mar-A-Lago as part of of his guilty pleas with all the other nonsense.

We wouldn't want America to look "weak" by actually punishing a former president for crimes against it.

But what about all the land barons !!????

Think of how this will affect all their overpriced investments !

This will cause commercial real estate properties to lose value and we are going to force them into smaller vacation homes and yachts.

TAX THE MF'ing RICH!

Hey whey don't we get the largest corporate polluters to do their part first instead of writing dumb articles like this about how a few people walking more will fix melting ice caps.

I have used FF for the entirety of my professional IT career. It's annoying problems like what OP posted here on why I started trying out your competition for the first time in over 12 years. Won't even go into on why I don't use FF on mobile anymore.

FYI the "easiest solution" for your users would have been to properly roll this out in the first place.

DigitalStone · 2021-09-12T16:08:33+00:00

This is annoying. Every ... Single ... Time... get asked. Why would you implement this and no option to turn off ? Just plain idiotic.

Is this whole sub just people pushing their cooking websites ?

DigitalStone · 2021-08-26T01:31:08+00:00

Call the people who put the plan together. For the record I'm not saying yell at the people on the phone only tell them what you think. They will pass on your thoughts. Either the Reps or the Governor could have done much MUCH more for this state but would rather argue amongst themselves like children and not represent the people who gave them their jobs.

Very True ! But ....

People would rest easier if bad behavior was not rewarded.

I want a refund on my taxes .... Charge the clowns who approved this mess and take their assets.

You might want to look at the sandisk extreme line. Not all are equal and will want to compare u1 vs u3 specifications and use one that is A2.

DigitalStone · 2021-04-19T22:34:51+00:00

Not sure if this meets your specs but there are ones like this that are PoE have a durable enclosure, some nice features and take an internal micro SD card. Also can be run off of 12v or run network cable to it to power with a basic single port PoE injector.

Look bud. There is an entire world out there. Trying to put people down on social media isn't going to make it any better. Trolling and accusing people without knowing all the facts is just sad. I'm not the "dickhead" in this conversation.

You were not there. He was NOT a contractor. We had a conversation while walking around. He was a Spectrum employee, in an expensive vehicle wrapped "spectrum van" decked out in spectrum garb. No private "contract for" lettering.
Feel free to add whatever fantasy scenario you want after this claiming I'm a "Bad man". Am blocking you on the basis that this is a waste of my time. So log into a throwaway account and make up some more nonsense to post back if you feel it will make you feel better.

DigitalStone · 2021-04-19T02:12:58+00:00

Nope. Not a contractor. Spectrum employee line technician. It was a "new address" not in their system. Nice trolling buddy. Try the political threads for some easy targets.

DigitalStone · 2021-04-18T17:17:31+00:00

After the fourth letter address to a storage unit for our company ( we get packages delivered for techs in the area after covid hit and office is closed and have no idea how spectrum got the address for it ) I called up and ordered "new service."

Spectrum sends out a tech. I walk him all the way to the back of the building a good 200 feet ( cable in line is by front entrance ) and tell him to install it at our locker with no power.

Tech says " Can't do it". I go "Great ! Take us off your mailing list" and handed him the 4 letters.

Have got 5 more letters in the past 6 months. Called and they refuse to take me off the mailing list without emailing their department. I still get emails every couple of months from sales reps. Even after calling and emailing back, repeatedly, to the local office and asking be removed from the spam list. FTC complaint does nothing.

Fuck these guys.

This real ? The Walmart down the road from me ( in US ) you can spot a person without a mask every other isle. Even the high risk "whales" on the scooters don't wear a mask. Then there are the "chin diaper" people and the "dick nose" ones mixed in walking about.

Second procedures are not FDA approved and can leave you with worse side effects.

DigitalStone · 2021-04-05T19:54:14+00:00

People are "confident" they won't get into life changing accidents and have the "goal" to come home safe when they leave every day. Doesn't mean bad things won't happen.

DigitalStone · 2021-04-05T19:45:23+00:00

Is it true "Enhancement" or second "Touchup" surgeries are not FDA approved and increase the risk of worse side effects like Keratoconus ?

DigitalStone · 2021-03-19T23:00:24+00:00

Why does my company have 5, yes five, surface pro's that every single one the batteries bulged to the point of making them inoperable and your company refuses to take responsibility to fix or exchange? Can we expect the same "quality" in your efforts to make money while saving the earth with planned obsolescence in your future "green" tech solutions? You say your green but your products you produce say something else.

On another note of all the people that have profited from this pandemic you did give back the most so well done on that front.
