When you've worn glasses for a long time, you're likely accustomed to having them on your face. However, you might still find them to be inconvenient at certain times — perhaps to the point at which you consider having Lasik surgery. When you meet with an eye specialist who performs this procedure, you'll get to hear all about how it's done, how the recovery goes, and ask any questions that you may have. While you might initially be a little anxious about going through this procedure, you won't regret it — especially when you no longer find yourself inconvenienced by glasses. Here are three times that you'll especially appreciate the procedure.
At The Beach
Few places are less friendly for those who wear glasses than the beach. You'll find that you either have to wear them in the water, which causes the glasses to get splashed and potentially damaged, or leave them with your towel, where you'll worry about them getting stepped on and you'll struggle to see while swimming. Additionally, you may find yourself juggling glasses and prescription sunglasses, which is a hassle. After Lasik surgery, you'll no longer face such struggles at the beach. You'll simply go into the water without glasses — but be able to see clearly.
In Fluctuating Environments
If you enter a cold area from a hot one or a hot area from a cold one, you'll face the annoyance of your glasses fogging up. This means that you'll typically need to remove the glasses and wipe away the fog, or stand for a few moments to allow the glasses to adjust to the new climate so that the fog goes away. Whether you're going into a cold ice rink to watch your kids play hockey or you're in a tropical resort and going outside after being in your guest room, you'll face this hassle. However, it will no longer be a problem when you're not wearing glasses due to Lasik surgery.
When Dressing Up
If you prefer the look of yourself without glasses, getting dressed up for formal engagements can be a nuisance. If you opt to leave your glasses at home, you'll need to put in contact lenses. Although some contact lens wearers get used to the process, others do not — and can feel sensitive about touching their eyes. After Lasik surgery, fussing with contact lenses won't be a part of your life. Instead, you can focus on choosing your outfit for the event instead of worrying about your eyes.
