If it’s good enough for Tiger Woods, it must be good enough for me!

Maybe…or you could be the small minority of people(5 out of 100) whose vision is forever ruined. As a business person, I like to figure out the cost benefit of this transaction…let’s take a look:

Cost: $2000/eye
Benefit: Not needing to wearing contacts anymore. 30 years of contact lens solution(4 per year at $10 per bottle) and $100 in contact lens costs per year = $4200 saved.

Now…of course, there’s risk:
Risk: Forever ruining your vision. The very thing that you use to see the world around you. Um…

Bottom line is: are you willing to risk your vision for life just so that you don’t need to put contacts on in the morning and take them off at night?

I sure am not, especially using Acuvue for Astigmatism with Accelerated Stabilization Design, which allows for better positioning of the lens for my football-shaped cornea. Yeah, life’s a bitch. Instead of a traditional hydrogel material, these contacts are made from Galyfilcon A, or silicone hydrogel. Basically, my previous contacts were unwearable because it dried my eyes out. These have been 100% more comfortable and less drying. So if dryness is what is making you consider Lasik, you should test other kinds of contacts. I have no cure for dryness in other areas of your body.

For all those people that have had Lasik and claim “I love waking up and being able to see the alarm clock.”, I can too. It’s because my alarm clock has digits that are huge and right next to the bed. So, there. FACE!

I been wondering about this new drug these kid on the street corner keep talking about while listening to their rap music. I don’t know what it is, but I reckon it is some form of designer drug these kids are all about these days. Will let you know when I find out. I bet it smells nasty and gives you bad breathe.

This one keeps on giving, like 8 years later…

It wasn’t all that bad…
