    Laser Eyes

    Has anyone had this done? Any thoughts?

    Thinking of going for it soonish.

    Yep, about 5 years ago. Still better than 20:20. Definitely worth the money (and not worth skimping). I had slightly drier eyes for a year or so afterwards, but back to normal now.

      Yes, I had some lasers put in. I find it easier to reheat frozen food by staring at it than using a microwave.

      I'm thinking of getting some adamantium claws next to save on knives.

        Yes the wife had it done. It was a great success and not at all painful.

        She was quite badly sighted and when we had sex she'd have to take her glasses off. Now after the operation she's started putting them back on again??? Not sure why???

          Absolutely not fecking way. I'd rather sport some facial furniture than have some sci fi tulip going on in my boat race.

            Not had it done, and I wouldn't have it done.

            But everyone I know who has done it said it was one of the best moves they've ever made. But as James says - don't scrimp on it.

              Wife had it done five years ago. Was ok for a while, but then got dry eyes and vision deteriorated. Now has to use large quantities of artificial tears and wear glasses - albeit at a much lower prescription than before. My sister in law had it done eight years ago and suffers badly from dry eye. I know a few people who've had no problems. It seems you're more likely to have trouble the higher your prescription and the smaller your eye sockets.

                What I liked about it, was her mother paid. Best couple of grand we never spent

                  Bearing in mind your boat race looks like it was hit by the Marchioness that's a pretty brave statement.

                    Laser surgery aberrations far too high. Not for me thanks.
