Emily sits down with Dr. Linden Will, optometrist and Director of Community Engagement at LASIK.com, for a candid, funny, and surprisingly eye-opening (pun intended) conversation about everything you've ever wanted to know about LASIK but were too scared to ask. 

Emily shares her own experience getting LASIK done at LASIK Plus in Denver — consultation and procedure in the same day — and Linden demystifies the process from the doctor's side. 

From debunking the "your prescription isn't stable enough" myth to breaking down the real cost comparison against a lifetime of contacts and glasses, this episode will have you seriously reconsidering why you're still fumbling for your glasses every morning. 

Whether you've been putting it off for years or just never thought you were a candidate, this one's for you. 

What we dig into: 

• Why so many eye doctors don't refer patients to LASIK — it's not what you think (hint: it's not a conspiracy, it's just not taught in school)
• Breaking down the cost — why $4–5K upfront actually pencils out against a lifetime of dailies, contact fittings, and glasses, plus LASIK.com's $100/month payment plans and 0% interest options
• Emily's first-hand patient experience — consultation and procedure in the same day, being barely able to see without her negative six prescription, and comparing it favourably to unmedicated childbirth
• The biggest LASIK myths busted — astigmatism, age, pregnancy, breastfeeding, prescription changes, and the fear that the flap will move (spoiler: all laser LASIK locks it in place)
