Thanks.

I had laser surgery done on my left eye almost a year ago. It was to

release

extra fluid in my eye from glaucoma. They don't put you out and mine was

painless. Took about 5 minutes.

Re: Re: Is this too high?

I have a few friends who have had laser surgery for cataracts and

they all say the anticipation is worse than the reality.

Vicki,

Thank you for the reassurance, I am hoping though that it won't be necessary

..

Regards,

Craig.

Re: Is this too high?

Thanks, for the detailed response!

It all sounds much worse than it really is and it is some comfort to

see the crowded waiting room, full of patients getting their eyes

lasered, and you never hear anybody yell, which is more than I can

say for our dentist's practices!

If you subscribe to the conspiracy theory, they could all be actors - hired

by the Doc to make him Look good (eye pun intended!)

My wife was offered a local anaesthetic but she refused it when she

saw that the eye doctor was preparing a needle about 6 " long which he

said would go in through her face to a point just behind the eye!

Best to grin and bear it!
