Anyone who says only sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain. However, it’s difficult to truly appreciate the beauty of a rainy day while struggling to focus through wet glasses.
Laser Vision Correction like LASIK can free you from the reliance on glasses and contact lenses. This summer, you can listen to the rhythm of the falling rain and feel like dancing, thanks to LASIK—a life-changing event.

Here’s how to get Summer-ready with LASIK, shared by Dr Yolandie at Sandton Eye Clinic:
Prep your body and mind for Summer
Exercise: One of the biggest drawbacks of glasses is that they are simply not suitable for most sports. Having your glasses slip, bounce, and fog up is extremely frustrating. It can affect the quality of your workout, the safety of your run, and even your enthusiasm to exercise at all. Contact lenses allow participation in a wide range of sports with much less disruption—if they stay in place. However, when extreme activities or water are involved, even contacts can prove troublesome. Laser Vision Correction can give you the freedom to just get up and go, run or swim.
Healthy diet: Anyone who wears spectacles knows they will fog up when opening the oven or checking a boiling pot. In those moments, we often forget and get a bit of a fright when everything suddenly goes blurry. With clear vision, healthy cooking might be just a bit more enjoyable.
Make time for Summer plans: How much time do you spend on your glasses and contacts? Shopping for glasses and contacts, cleaning them, and finding them when they are missing. Even if this takes just 10 minutes per day, it adds up to 60 hours every year. Imagine how that time could be better spent this summer.
How LASIK changed my life
LASIK can make a big difference in quality of life, specially when you’re on the go:

“Before my PRK procedure, I struggled with driving at night and working on my laptop. My eyes would start straining. Since the procedure, I haven’t experienced that. Running is a breeze. I used to wear glasses to the gym or outdoors for prolonged periods to avoid headaches, but that’s no longer necessary. I was very fearful before the procedure. The post-operation downtime was tough—But now, a few months later, I have no regrets. I don’t have to worry about my glasses, and my vision is incredible. I would recommend this procedure to anyone.”

“As soon as I woke up, I had to reach for my glasses. I was completely dependent on my glasses, not to mention the cost of glasses and contacts. The first thing I noticed after Dr Lourens Coetzee did my LASIK was how vibrant everything appeared.
Daily tasks became effortless. Clear vision also allowed me to enjoy swimming. As a content creator, I no longer need to worry about removing my glasses to avoid camera flares. If you’re considering LASIK, don’t wait any longer. It’s life-changing, and I wish I had done it sooner.

“As someone with an active lifestyle and a frequent traveler, relying on glasses was a constant battle—they slipped off during workouts and fell off on stage. After LASIK at Sandton Eye Clinic, I experienced a newfound sense of convenience. This freedom has been a game-changer. It has revolutionized my training and movement, giving me the confidence to push myself. To anyone considering LASIK, seize the opportunity without hesitation. LASIK transformed my life, and I have zero regrets.”

Disclaimer: Glasses are safe because there is no medical procedure. If you are happy to wear glasses LASIK is not for you. According to research the cumulative risk of contact lenses may be more than LASIK.
