Was supposed ti si in the dark for 2 days but after 2 hours I was demented so headed for the gym haha! Eyes already improving, Im over the moon with it, so fingers crossed all should be well for comp on Sunday. I was gonna just get one done this week, but would have been hard to get time off work again so got them both done. Recommend it to anyone, theres nowt like the smell of your eyes burning! They don't tell you that in the brochure...

Glad it's working out for you.

Damn I really want laser eye surgery! What is it like mate? Besides the smelling of your melting eyes.

Erm I been told you shouldn't lift weights for three months after surgery as lifting places a lot of pressure behind the eyes?

Went to gym same day as having my eyes done.

Nobody ever any mentioned not lifting weights for any period of time - the only thing was to avoid getting dirt/sweat...in your eyes for the first couple of days.

Also highly recommend it to anybody

http://rfbooth.com/thoughts/lasik.html tells the whole story of mine. It seems, rather to my surprise, to be the most popular thing I've ever written.

Glad it went well, a friend of mine did his aviation science degree disertation on the effects of laser eye surgery on pilots, apparently following the treatment you cannot do night flights for several months (im sure he said 6).

The unholy lashup of software I used to put it together has never been installed on my current computer! I may have to try to get it up and running in my alleged free time between now and Christmas...
