A member asked:
I have a lot of floaters and i had lasik surgery for removing glasses if these floaters appear because of lasik? or stress?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ophthalmologist: I don't think that stress alone causes floaters, but if you're experiencing showers of new floaters, an eye examination by an ophthalmologist is needed to check for retinal detachment although simple vitreous floaters may be occurring.

I have good insurance, but terrible vision. How much should I expect to pay out-of-pocket to get lasik done? I'm 27-years old, and I am near-sighted. I currently wear glasses to work, drive, watch tv, etc. I'd like to get lasik surgery in the near future.
