Laser eye surgery
After 10 years (im 47 yo)of needing glasses I finally bit the bullet and got Lasik treatment.Was done on Friday and actual op only took 1 minute per eye.Cost $5600 however I believe money well spent.The following couple hours eyes where saw however quickly improved and That night I was able to watch the footy on television.So good to not need prescription safety,sunglasses,reading and everyday clear glasses.Off work for few days to recover and was today able to tie mono to braid and spool up a stradic 1000 for trout and. Chronarch 2000 for cod that I bought 6 months ago.So much easier to see and will do a run to the Goulburn tomorrow for a fish.Anyone thinking of doing I highly recommend as though only early days its a game changer.

Re: Laser eye surgery
Interesting. I’ve started wearing contacts regularly after getting into hunting heavily this year. Got sick to death of rain and fog with glasses. Not to mention having a **** of a time using binos etc.
I’ve recently signed up for health insurance that will throw $1200 at laser eye surgery after 2 years cover. I’ll definitely be biting this bullet in the next few years.

Great to hear Mr F Hunter
Great that it has helped you, as your excitement does come through in your post. But even greater that you have shared your experience to possibly motivate the hesitant who may be looking at the same thing
I have been witness to three "eye treatments" of family and friends and all three have been ecstatically excited about their results
Happy for you. But if your improved eyesight has got your wife getting you to do more jobs around the place , , , , well, my condolences for that

Re: Laser eye surgery
Did the procedure fix long and short sighted-ness? I had the procedure to fix Short sighted-ness about 16 years ago and have never looked back, but my close up vision is not starting to deteriorate. So if u have the chance to do I have been glasses free for 16 years. Wonder if that can now fix long sighted issuesferalhunter wrote: ↑Mon Sep 16, 2019 7:30 pmAfter 10 years (im 47 yo)of needing glasses I finally bit the bullet and got Lasik treatment.Was done on Friday and actual op only took 1 minute per eye.Cost $5600 however I believe money well spent.The following couple hours eyes where saw however quickly improved and That night I was able to watch the footy on television.So good to not need prescription safety,sunglasses,reading and everyday clear glasses.Off work for few days to recover and was today able to tie mono to braid and spool up a stradic 1000 for trout and.
