Yes, Wood, it´s Lasik.

I have already done the pre-test and passed so I can take the procedure which is less complicated. It seems to be the same opération you had in Toronto. Cost is high, but my opticien is one of the best in Paris.

I´ll be staying at my Mom´s as she lives close by the Lasik centre, and she will fetch me by car and take me to her house and let me sleep for the next 24 hours - assuming she won´t give me any grief, but she promised to be on her best behaviour. She is too scared and has already got surgical goggles and gloves from my brother who is a surgeon. LOL Then I will go to the doctor´s again for a test and after that I can go home.

I´ve been given the grand tour and have seen how this looks. It´s not pleasant to know a laser is cutting your eye, that´s the most frightening thought. I also fear I will have dry eyes, because I get that now and then with my lenses, but this is a detail.

Thanks a lot for this detailed description of your own experience and great tips. I really appreciated it and I´m not as scared anymore.

I have always dreamt of going to Canada, at least I speak both languages, LOL and I´m told it´s amazing. It´s definately on my list.
