    Anyone had it done?

    Been thinking about it for 20 years but not got round to it. My siblings and some cousins had it done and swear by it, but I have a mate whose ****ed up too

    So what did you pay and how did it all go?

    Are you long or short sighted?

    Short sighted. Have been for years.

    I'm lucky that it's just for TV and work, I may change my mind if I had to wear them all the time.

    One of my cousins was blind as a bat and now has 20/20 ... his brother also had it done ... he had the better eyesight before the op but, ironically, didn't get quite as good results after ... still enough improvement to no longer need specs mind ...

    The operation is simpler for short sight I think.

    I know a few people who've had it done, and all barring one now have perfect sight.

    My Uncle had it done a few years back, said it was one of the best things he's paid for. Didn't ask the cost but says his vision is perfect.

    The price has come down a hell of a lot ... one of my old clients (Alcon) were the first to import lasers (Visex I think) ... Moorfields had one of the first .... the procedure has also changed ... used to just shave the lens whereas they now have alternatives like using some form of flap technique ...
