    Oh really? So I'll be ok to walk home straight after having had surgery on my eyes yeah?

    I'm sure you could find somone to accompany you. There are more pressing issues. The snow in the northwest is the worst we've ever seen. I have to work right up til christmas eve and make it home for christmas to see my family who i haven't seen in months. Hopefully i'll make it.

    Besides that,people are without water, stranded in the countryside and elderly cannot make it out of their homes and you are asking if you can make it 1 mile from your home for something that is not immediately necessary?

    Nobody can tell you for sure whether it'll snow in the 1 mile region Pythia. As the saying goes expect the worst and you won't be disappointed. Chances are there'll be more snow.

    Hope all goes well and you make it to clinic and back...... boards should come up with an ignore icon for people with stupid replies:cool:

    I know how important these appointments are and if you have to re-book it could be months:mad:

    Btw had laser treatment done two yrs ago and i've never looked back (no pun intended:P)
