    now thats what i like to hear:)!!! hahaha

    i might look into getting it done pretty soon, well when i turn 20 anyway. man 20 that sounds old. 50quid a months sttteeeeeeeeeepp. my eyes arent that bad, theyre just better than the required PSNI standard, so i might just get some contacts soon. i had them a while back, but i dunno if it was just me being young and stupid, but they hurt my eyes and i wasnt the best at cleaning them. (monthly ones). tried dailys and loved them. then i ran out of bills lol

    i dont think my peelers would let me into the peelers :( damn them i dont know who im damming more medical standards or my eyes!

    yeah monthlys are a total pain im too lazy for all that caring! i went to sleep with dailies one night woke up looked out the window and was like oh look at that then stuck the specs on and realised! it hurt lots trying to get one of them out how stupid did i feel!! :o:D

    let me know what they said, you think they shouldnt have taken you because you were 19? your right like your eyes arent something you should mess around with it needs lots of consideration! i just want to get it over and done with though!! did you have lasik or lasek?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,013 ✭✭✭smyff


    given could it be because your eyes werent fully developed though? that was one of the reasons my optition said to me about. because i had to get a certain type of lenses for my eyes. he said it can be up to like 25 before they finally settle.

    i got the lasik done originially then in my enhancements i got the Lasek done for both eyes... though it is more painfull i personally think its a better treatment. apparently i was old enough... optimax dont take you until your 21 just for safety!

    well they said i was suitable for it so not sure:eek: lol to 2bh... ive noticed it geting better the past few days since i made these posts.. maybe its to early to say if they have settled yet and are still healing becasuse it said it can take up to a number of months before its an its optimim:)
