although....I wouldn't mind seeing C_units ass by braile.......

(wonder if she knows we have made some many compliments of her ass yet).
I had mine done 6 yrs ago for $1500, from a Canadian doctor who opened his office in the States, he also had an office in Canada.

Regarding C_Unit's ass, unless you have a better pic showing her ass, I don't see much ass in the other picture. Now, if you do, it is a societal law that you have to post it.

I will report...... I have been encouraged by just about everyone who has had it.... even people who had less sophisticated versions and people who had it done 4-5-6 years ago..... I don't think I have met a person yet who says not to get it done.

i had it done about 7 years ago. in australia, it isnt covered under health care, but it is tax deductible.

cost was about aud$3500, no problems at all. the reason u have to wear the glasses and not contacts is so ur eyes can return to a normal shape without the pressure of the lenses on the eyes.

i had contacts, used them for sport only, but hated them, and i wore glasses all the time.

my younger brother also had lasik, but he wore contacts all teh time and developed a few infections as he wore disposables whcih didnt need to be taken out, but over time, they do get dirty.

get it done, those that have problems or have had less than perfect results r minimal compared to the people that have had positive experiences imo

i got my eyes done for $1K!!!!!!!!!

in canada, laser eye surgery is considered cosmetic, and therefore not covered by the health system nor by employer health plans.....

PS. i got it done and i need to see more of c_unit's ass....
I got my eyes done (Both) for $705!





I went to Colombia to do it! And before you say "I woudn't go to a third world country..." It's NOT a third world country!

Yeah, but your meals, plane ticket, and hotel stay all probably cost you another $500-$1000, so you didn't really save anything over going to Canada (where you don't have to worry about Montezuma's revenge).
