    If so, which type and how has it been?

    Having a consultation tomorrow and reading through all the possible complications scares me, however small they are!

    Cheers.

    Probably, but they can't read your question.

    no ...but I did go for an eye test...and

    I said to the guy behind the counter
    "I think I need Glasses"
    "yes I think you do" he said
    "this is the Butchers, Optician is next door you muppet"

    perfectly easy mistake

    The missis has...

    Had one eye done at Optimax in Leeds about four years ago, she now has some weird set up where both eyes compensate for the other (one long sighted one short sighted apparrently). She swears by it and it cost about £300 due to an offer at the time, that's certainly less than I've spent on reading glasses in the meantime.

    My wife had this done, about 4 years ago and her far sight is great now, however she needs readers now, she say you don't feel a thing and could see far things straight away, just have to make sure you put in the eye drops because the eyes tend to become dry for the first while, my other friend at work wore glasses all his life had the surgery and now has 20/20 vision, depending on how old, eye condition etc results will be different, but both don't regret having it done.


    hope this will help

    Having to done next month - been told it will work but as we ALL get older our eye muscles weaken and as such we will nbeed reading glasses however successful it is. Will cost me 3k but I'm having the ultimate option

    It's a load of ballocks.

    Iwas hoping to be able to melt padlocks or at least burn people's arses. Apart from improving my vision it had no effect whatsoever.</p>
