I assume you are recommending also against lasik. I have been considering
that for a couple of years, but I hesitate because there's no going back.
However I did try a new technique called CRT. Corneal Refractive Therapy.
You wear special gas perms at night, don't need them during the day, for up
to 3 days after 1 night's use. It's amazing, but my vision (quite bad) is
right at the limit they can usually correct, and it just couldn't quite give
me the vision I need. So I've beenwearing them just like regular contacts,
and when they are removed, I have much better vision "naked" than I ever
did before.As I said, it is amazing.

If this is the therapy where the corneas are essentially squeezed or
"trained" into a shape allowing accurate vision, then no, I haven't
heard anything bad about it and doubt there would be, as it pushes
around the available cornea, rather than shaving or blasting away
layers to create a sort of built-in lens.

Sorry it didn't quite work for you. How was your night vision?
