I know you get drops to numbs your eyes so you don't feel pain, but going by this video it looks cringy as hell, and the thought of not blinking for that length of time makes my eyes water!

Not blinking is the last of your worries with these operations  :lipsrsealed:

Hope the recovery goes well Evoss.. How is your night vision? Any streaking or starbursts?

they told me that if I had the surgery done it would remove the starbursts I get at the moment.  I've worn glasses since I was about 10, so didn't even know I was seeing starburts lol, to be it was normal!!

WOW from 8.25! Mine are 1.25 and I struggle without my lenses at times!  :nerd:

A few friends had lazer surgery done abroad (India) by top eye specialists. Turned out under £500 and that was high end. I am very tempted myself as lenses are a ball ache at times.

Good stuff :smiley:

Happy for you mate. My left eye is f**ked from a bad detatched retina. What ever I look at is blured and missed shaped. A straight line will be bent lol

I've had several ops and it can be annoying makes me feel lucky as I paid nothing  :smiley: sometimes you take them for granted and forget how precious they are.

No flash. That's just light reflection from a mirror. It's f**ked and was fall of a silicon oil.
