Contact Lenses || LASIK

I need to get me some contact lenses that I can use for sports. Am Myopic and though I’ve been able to compete with the condition…I need to be in top form for it. To be able to focus 20/20.

I’ll appreciate any advice on where I can find the best Contacts for sports, price and also I’ve been thinking of LASIK. Any pointers on how much it costs in Kenya?

Is it a contact sport? Lasik would be better. There’re top notch lasik ophthalmologists at Sarit & MP Shah.

Nope…not a Contact Sport. Something like Tennis/Badminton/Cricket/Baseball.

Last time nilicheki quotation ya LASIK from Lions Health singeweza afford it. About 3-4 years ago. How much does it cost currently?

The Sarit Laser Eye Centre would be 3 times as costly as Lions. I don’t ha e an exact figure. And you have to book these guys weeks in advance.

I guess I’ll have to do more research on Lions Health. Hao wengine naona I’ll have to sell a kidney to fix my eyes.

How effective is lasik? Does it restore sight completely 20/20 ama ni kubahatisha? I have been thinking about it but reading some reviews about that technology gives me goose bumps. Apparently it is not 100% and you can loose your sight during the operation. Hebu give me more insight on this, I would prefer it to contacts…

True. I know someone contemplating suing one of the practitioners after losing sight in the eye that had lasik surgery. Personally, I wouldn’t go near it.

Shiet! Nishaogopa hio procedure sasa. Any advice about contact lenses especially for sports?

Doc, where was this done?

Last year, Sarit at Dr. Joshi, LASIK was 200k per eye.

How much is Lion’s?

In Thailand, it is about USD 200 per eye.

@Shabba Ranks , an interesting answer. you say you are in sports yet answer, that something like …. are you in one of those sports or all of them ?. Tafadhali clarify.
Me, I refused I a LASIK procedure years back because it would have solved one sight problem but meant I still needed glasses.

Hehe…it is one of those. The answer is sufficient for the question.

Shabba, hehehehe … just admit ni badminton… we will not judge you harshly … :D:D
A sport is a sport if it keeps you fit.

Nope…unpopular sports like those can easily get your cover blown by those who know you. That’s why nimeweka kadhaa.

Poa basi. Understood.
