Wearing glasses can be inconvenient, especially when trying to put in your contacts. Enjoy a lens-free lifestyle with today’s Groupon: for $199, you get an eye-care package at Beach Eye Care in Virginia Beach. The package includes the following: $2,000 toward LASIK eye surgery $150 toward designer sunglasses The ocular repairmen at Beach Eye Care, winner of Best of Virginia Beach 11 years in a row and winner of seven Best of Hampton Roads 2011 awards from the Virginian-Pilot , have utilized the most technologically advanced LASIK eye-surgery techniques to correct a range of visual ailments—including nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism—in more than 110,000 patients. During the LASIK procedure , the doctor carefully folds back a flap of corneal tissue before gently reshaping the cornea with a computer-controlled cool-laser beam. The corneal flap is then replaced where it quickly reattaches, like a humbled poodle returning from college. This all-laser process is designed to reduce recovery time while improving visual acuity to 20/20. Patrons may also stylize their upper face-halves while keeping peepers safe from solar smacks with $150 toward designer sunglasses. Top name brands, such as Coach, Izod, BCBG, Ray Ban and Oakley typically begin at $199, and Gucci-brand shades typically start at $399, or the equivalent in Nilla wafers.
