Yes. It doesn't hurt at all from what I've heard. Back then they scraped the eye with something like a small scalpel before the laser surgery itself. 50 minutes after surgery the anastaethic stopped working and... :zombiefuck:

I've been thinking about having laser surgery done but I suspect I'm getting too old to fully enjoy its benefits. I'd still need reading glasses. :-\

Call or mail some clinic and ask. It's better to do it while you're young, but the technique is constantly improving, so it might work well enough anyway.

Thanks. I will.

Yeah Odeon, I was told the best benefit to me would be when my eyes had degenerated quite a bit. I'm surprised if you have just had surgery, your Opthalmologist has not discussed what the benefits / non benefits of laser would be. Did you not ask?

These people are surgeons that want to cut into your eye muscles. It's very far from their mo to discuss laser surgery.

Besides the dry mouth, are you getting any other effects? Is it helping?   :orly:

Since Friday I've been doing quite well remembering.

A little more energy maybe but no help in the focusing department

Maybe at a slightly higher dose then. Good luck.  :thumbup:

Head is better now than earlier. Eye is driving me batshit.
