It's OK - I've got a few leftover Percocet in my helmet bag left over from a back injury. Just one of those "just in case" things. I rarely ever take pain meds, but they sure as hell work when you need one.
mongo and jeffro, thanks for all the info!! i am wanting to get it done this year if financially possable. mongo, if you have time, could you please pm me who did yours. i figured you worked a racer (or wanting to race in my case ) discount.
I would love to be shed of my glasses but with only one fully functioning eyeball it's not an option. The infintesimal chance of a FU can't be taken when only one works. I did get contacts to try when RR. I wore them trials riding to help get acclimated. One ride it was misty / drizzly and the guys with glasses were constantly having to clean them and at the end of the day it hit me that I hadn't had to mess with that crap at all :up: .
I agree, if I had only one fully functional eye I probably wouldn't have taken the chance. That's a bummer... Jeffro
I have an uncle that is in his 70's that has had fu'ed eyes forever and recently got cataracts so they fixed that and fixed his eyesight at the same time and now for the first time in at least 60 years he doesn't need glasses ! It's a cool thing !! For me with only one good eye my glasses work like safey glasses and have probably kept the good one from being injured.
Congrats Jeffro! I talked to a woman at the Michelson clinic last summer. I just don't have that kind of money right now. If I ever do they'll be doing it. :up:
Thanks. Did I mention that I can see!!!! It is soooo cool. One week exam and all is well. Make sure you use Michelson, you won't be sorry. Definitely the best around. I didn't have the money either. That's what home equity loans are for aren't they?!?! Jeffro
HRC, Today's the day. Let us know how your surgery went when you can read this... Hope all went well... Jeffro
Guess you're talking about me, Nick (it's Randy). Had mine done yesterday afternoon at 4:30. 20-20 at 7:15 this morning (I drove there myself). Still have a little bit of a haze, but, I heard that will go away in 48-72 hours. Don't know WTF was wrong with me that I waited so long to have it done. Anyone in central PA that might be interested, I strongly recommend Dr. Dailey at Dailey Eye Associates .
I didn't know that getting my balls fixed would give me good vision. I get blurry everytime I think about getting snipped. :wow: That's the next surgery for me. Stay tuned for the "I'm shooting blanks now!!!!" thread later this year... Oh wait, you mean eye balls... Good on ya Hendo, we want you to see every one of those terrorists so you can stay safe and take them all out...:up: Jeffro
Amen brother. It's amazing how simple an operation it really is for such immediate results. BTW, I notice that you are in Mechanicsburg. My father-in-law lives there. Been there quite a few times... Jeffro
