Re: [RC] Was LASIK-Now Paragon CRT - jillcohndc

 
 Well--I avoid any surgery like the plague so was delighted to discover Paragon CRT.  I have astigmatism and far and near problems and hate wearing glasses.  Paragon CRT are hard lenses customized for me that I put in BEFORE I go to sleep and remove in the AM when I get up.  It's like a retainer for my eyes--changes their shape.  I am totally happy with this arrangement and recommend it.  Ask the manufacturer for practioners referrals.  Best to you all--

I'm not sharon, but I had my LASIK at age 56 to correct severe astigmatism and myopia (without my glasses Iwas legally blind: 20/600, couldn't see the big E on the chart). I opted for correction of both eyes for distance, and am still 20/20 -- but I need reading glasses for presbyopia if I want to read small print -- which was true before I had LASIK, as well; although I can read newspaper print without glasses post-LASIK). 
 
It really felt good to go down to the DMV a few months later and get the "corrective lenses" addition taken off my driver's license -- it had been there since I got my first license at 14!
