If this laser eye surgery is so good...why do all the opticians and surgeons wear glasses..????

I have thought about having it done as I am as blind as a bat...and that question has always worried me..!!!! :scared:

I was in Coventry two weeks ago for a week - has to come back to see parents in cheshire and came to Cov to see friends.


Love it here - feel so settled and made some good friends.

Could never imagine living in UK again

Dont worry I asked the same question to an optician before having it done and asked him on his views. This was long before I actually took the plunge. He basically said that he was going to get it done when he felt that wearing glasses interfered with his work I think its a matter of preference with people and how much it bothers them wearing glasses or contacts. HTH

Thanks Think I will get it done. I have been thinking about it for ages. Been wearing glasses and contact lenses for about 10 years.
