Celeb-LASIK - Kim Kardashian Gets Lasik

In a recent episode of "Keeping up with the Kardashians", Kim Kardashian decided to get LASIK and showed the entire procedure from start to finish. Kim has struggled with her vision since she was a teen in high school and now she had a hotly anticipated performance with the all-girl group, "The Pussy Cat Dolls" and she wanted to perform on stage in Las Vegas without the hassle of contact lenses.

The surgeon that Kim chose is Dr. Robert Maloney of Beverly Hills who has over 50,000 LASIK surgeries to his credit. By the way, that's a great question to ask your own doctor during your consultation, exactly how many LASIK procedures has your doctor performed?

Kim blogged about her nervousness before the Lasik Los Angeles procedure, "I am getting lasik eye surgery soon and I'm sooo scared! Have any of you done it?"

Kim allowed her LASIK procedure to be filmed and it took less than one minute per eye for her LASIK surgery. For Kim's procedure, it went well as most LASIK surgeries do and the next day she was expressing amazement she could see more clearly than every.

Many people are apprehensive about LASIK because they hear there is a blade used. There are now options for blade-free LASIK surgery where only a laser is used and no blade whatsoever. The only way to know for sure which LASIK procedure is the correct one for you is to schedule a consultation with a physician in your area and go over your eye health, current vision issues and overall health. You'll be able to know which LASIK procedure will work best to address your needs and although you probably won't be performing in Las Vegas, you will get to enjoy the clearest vision you've had in years.
