That is a stunning specimen of the grade A entitlement bitch. Wow.
It's amusing, though, that she's obviously not too bright, either. When someone is going to be using a laser scalpel on your freaking cornea, is that really the time to bargain shop? Wouldn't you want to most qualified, top notch surgeon regardless of cost? I know I would. She also doesn't understand an astigmatism. She's probably too cheap to get special contacts, because folks with that condition can and do see perfectly with toric contacts. Also, very few people absolutely cannot wear contacts. The damage done by overwearing contacts heals if you stop wearing them for a period of time. I was a dumbass who did that, and as severe as my damage was, I only had to be out of my lenses for six months. She's full of shit, trying to justify her "need" for Lasik.
I've had glasses since 3rd grade. I'm nearsighted enough that I cannot find my glasses once I've taken them off and set them down. I can't see the clock in the middle of the night, or drive, or even navigate to the bathroom safely. I hate glasses, they give me a headache, and I'm not allowed to wear contacts at work. Maybe I should get a cut from her fund, since I'm obviously in more need than her?

Sorry for ranting. I hate the world lately.
