Forget optometrists.

Go check out the Laser Eye Center and get rid of your glasses!!!

I personally prefer the look of wearing glasses, as it adds 20 points to my intelligence.

But I admit that I've always been curious about Lasik.

So when I asked my friends if I should get it done, they said it has to be done repeatedly...just like oil changes for cars.

Is this true?

can't tell you from personal experience since i've only had it for 6 months now. but i've been told from my dr that as long as i take good care of my eyes and keep it lubricated with eye drops, my eyesight won't deteriorate.

My sister likes going to one inside the Asian Garden Mall in Westminster.

I think there are three optometrists in the mall, and there are about four great eyeglass/sunglass stores that give the best deals on fashion glasses.

Just an FYI, my fiance's best friend went there and they sold her a fake pair of Prada glasses. They said it was 100% authentic and looked pretty close. However she brought it to Saks Fifth and they confirmed it was fake. She had a hell of a time getting back her money, but she eventually got it back. If you are facing outwards, it was the store on the upper level, on your right, in the very front. I know this girl personally, so I take her word 100% on this. So, YMMV.
