Getting my eyes done

[Stan_Lite]

TBH I'm not sure Jonny, I didn't get a detailed breakdown. I would imagime they'll send me some sort of paperwork. If not, I'll ask them - I'd like to know for myself.

My Landlord & Landlady had there eyes done around 2 years ago & are now blind.
It's cool though as he is now our local Daredevil type dude who fights crime & uses his other heightened sences. Sylvy is a bit buggered though as she can never find the washing line & keeps clothe lining herself every time she goes out to feed the birds




Now the boring truth.
All went well with paul & his eyes turned out great, They do one at a time & it's a bit weird for a week or so but all in all he said it's a piece of ****. Sylys not so good though, One eye didn't go to plan & she had to visit the place twice afterwards for slight correction. no real problem but a pain in the butt.
Both happily living without glasses these days No regrets & feeling ten years younger.

Personal.
Not for malc I like my glasses. i don't even have to wear mine for driving but i wear them all the time regardless as like i say I Like my glasses

Best of wishes with this Stan. I know quite a few people who have had it and never looked back (no pun intended)..

Stan I have recently found out that Penski's other half is a laz tech and does the op in your area and others, might be worth having a chat and 'seeing' (<see what I did there?) if he can get you a deal

I see what you did. Let's hope I can still see what you did in 6 weeks time

This was discussed in the other place and he was going to see about a special request for the staff to be wearing sexy shoes on the day of my procedure

I thought she worked up in Toon town? I'm down south where we drink shandy and Pimms.

That's where I reside these days

I tried Pimms once - they were dishing out samples at the airport once

Must be too Northern for sophisticated drinks

I'm booked up for 1st May

Had my consultation earlier today, pretty gross procedure where they measure your eye up and they put drops in to dilate your pupils. At the moment my eyesight is all screwed up because they look like this:



Really sensitive to bright lights and can't focus on anything close up unless I take my glasses off and get really close so I'm practically licking my laptop keyboard to post this

Grossest bit was when they measure the thickness of your cornea. They put in some anaesthetic drops and use what I can only describe as a spring loaded centre punch right in the centre of your eye. It sort of punches in and your field of sight goes a bit like what still water looks like when you drop a stone into it. I have a thicker than average cornea, wooo go me
