Halotus goes blind

By samadams42 - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, my mom said she wanted me to get laser eye surgery before she did, "just in case it isn't safe." FML

if she pays for it, get it. it's safe. I'm 6 years post-LASIK and never once had a problem it's a miracle procedure and I recommend it to everyone!

$1500-2300 depending on which type of LASIK wavefront, bladed, all laser that's for both eyes. some insurance also cover up to 50%

insurance helps, wow. what does that feel like though because you obviously can't close your eyes and go to sleep. I was watching keeping up with the kardashians once and they like pinned her eyelids opened or something...

Glad it worked for you but not everyone is even a candidate. Every case is unique, I had a consult and the doc said no way.

lol She gave birth to you so if you have to lose your eyesight for her, do it! :P

great mother, tell her you want her to get hit by a car before you do... just invade it isn't safe

I had it done. It is AMAAAZZZZING!! Trust me... Not really an FML for you. She's just chicken. Go for it. You won't regret it. :D

I second that. It's really easy and simple, and you'll see like and eagle....well, not really.....but it's worth it

Either she was joking in which case she has a dry sense of humor, get used to it. Or She's just unintelligent and is willing to pay for you to get a completely safe procedure so she can feel more secure about getting it herself. If this is true, take advantage of her evolutionary disadvantages.

yeah my mom would probably joke about something like that
