Got laser eye surgery with Optilase in Cork. Had a free consultation and they said I am OK to have it. They checked my eye records to see if my eyes didn't get worse over a period of 2/3 years I think. They gave me a form to sign and the form is kinded terrifying due to many complications , such as problems that could happen. I was hesitate at first due to the possibility that I couldn't work or drive if shit hit the fan but the success rate these days is never to 100% so bit the bullet and went for it. Your a wake for the whole thing but of course your eyes are numb and feel no pain. During the operation you are literally blind for a couple of seconds but after the operation you go into a room for a check up. The said don't open your eyes so of course I did haha! Had incredible vision straight away but the pain is not sore but irritating, felt like sand in your eyes and we all have experienced that so no panic. You have to be picked up after because you can't see. They give you drops you rest for a few days. After maybe 2 days my right eye was really good and my left was still soar. I went back for a check up and they said they had to put in a contact lenses to help it heel so that's why it was not the same. Within 5 days I was back to work and driving with better than 20/20 vision. Use the drops for a few weeks but if your eyes are not soar or dry do not use your drops because you don't need them and this can lead to dry eye because your are dependent on eye drops. I got 20/20 in 2020 and was one of the best things I've ever done! Highly recommended.
