Please forgive me but my recovery means I have to posture i.e lie in the same position for seven solid days and night.... Retinal detachment operations are ****e. Especially 3 of them in 6 weeks. Please kill me.
Spooky . . . . I had laser eye surgery on Friday 13th and if I'd waited a week I could well have (according to the surgeon) had a detached retina. Two eyes are better than one, so I believe that I've been very lucky (it's still scary 'cos there's no guarantee that it was a success - I've got a follow up appointment on Tuesday 22nd)
I went general anithestic first time but local second and third. It's not painful but you are aware when tools are in your eyeball.
I'd have to be knocked out, the thought of touching my eyeball makes me cringe let alone someone else touching it
Me dad never felt anything during his 2 cataract operations, he got sedated though, they inject numbing stuff under the eyeball. I've just had my teeth cleaned at the dentist and that is enough for me !.
Well there's worse off than you marra Still sounds shìte like. Me dads had cataracts done and they've advised laser surgery. He's turned it down, Ah nar why, fooker doesn't want to miss his afternoons in the pub All the best
