Bye bye glasses....

Post by Mr McStreak »

Earlier on today I took my glasses off and couldn't remember where i'd left them, barely able to see I spent a good half an hour searching for them before I was satisfied i'd checked everywhere possible. I then spotted them by the dog basket, in about 20 pieces. The Newfoundland looked guilty, but pleased with herself all the same.

Great.

Any opticians doing good deals at the moment?

i wore glasses from the age of 5 till about 21 then had my eyes laser'd ,,,,,,,,,, i was one of the first few hundred people in the uk to have it done ,,,,,,,,,, and it was considered experimental ,,,,,,,,,,,,, you had to sign a waiver back then , to say that if you went blind , you couldn't sue the clinic ffs lol. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, cost a packet too ,,,,in the thousands ,,(me mam paid ,,, whooo),,,, i was actually done by the pioneer of the treatment himself , dr austin ,,,,,,,,,,, surrounded by russian trainee's

i was told that they didn't know the long term effects , and by age 33 my eyes had regressed back to shit .......... so its been back to glasses ever since.

a few weeks ago , i went for a review at bupa to see if they could be re-done. but due to internal scaring or somethingorother they cant .

the only treatment i could be suitable for , is actual lens implants in the eye , they have to cut into and peel half your eye open , insert the lens , then put em back together etc

FUCK THAT.

sticking with glasses .

prada of course ,,,,,,,,(c'mon , you knew i was gonna have to boast and do one better than silent lol) :P

Just join up to simplyhealth, their minimum plan is something like £14 p/m with no long term sign up and their optical benefit is over £100 from memory. Also get half your dental fees/physio etc back too, furthermore you are covered for other things like personal accident. I got £500 for breaking my arm.

Probably sounds like a sales pitch, but it is worth it. My brother works for them.
