Title: I imagine you need steady hands for this.
Post by: TG on February 22, 2008, 02:12:32 PM: DIY laser eye surgery?

And why not? $99 an eye. How can it fail?

You can even get the T-shirt

Nelson Ludo of New York says :

I was worried that LASIK@Home would be too hard, but the instructions were very easy to understand. Now I can stop spending money on contact lenses.

He's not kidding!

My LASIK@Home kit came in the mail just a few days after I ordered it. I was so excited that I used it that same night! My boyfriend helped me do it. It was all done in an hour and I didn’t feel a thing!

When BM forwarded it to me I just totally thought it to be a wind up ::)
Having just gone through the corrective eye laser procedure myself I can confirm that there is NO WAY you'd do it to yourself (unless you were a total nutter rubschin:) - There are loads of yucky prep things that have to be done to the eyeball first sick2: then you have to have the lids sort of taped open with a style of eyelash curler clamped on to hold them open and then they shoot the laser rays into each eye ball scared2: scared2: scared2:
Even if anyone had the nerve to do that to themselves I can just then imagine having the system clamped to you eye and hesitantly going - okay I'm ready, finger on button................oh no I'm not, finger off button...............okay I'm ready, finger on button....................oh no I'm not, finger off button-------I think you get my drift ::)
