[color=#FF0000:1fnfdzuc]Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score. Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0[/color:1fnfdzuc] I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum. Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight! Esse quam videri.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_45658.jpg



Do they still make you sign a legal document that if your eye's were to fall out in 10 years time due to the procedure, they can't be held responsible? Maybe a little over the top description of an adverse reaction from the op by myself, but you get my drift.

A friend had his done what must be nearly a decade ago, and I'm sure he told me had to sign something along the above lines. Then again at that time I suppose it was quite a new and to a certain extent, untested procedure. I'm glad to say his eye's haven't fallen out, well not yet anyway.

Best of luck with the op. NO one likes going under the knife, or in your case, frickin laser beam!

When booking the consultation, they said that they (Ultralase) provide a lifetime guarantee - so should any problems occur down the line, they will correct them free of charge.

I'll be sure to read the small print on the contract.

Quite what they could do if my eyes fell out I don't know icon_surprised.gif

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Frederick Douglas:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_30596.jpg



Change of career, children's entertainer.

It would be pointless for me, since my eyes are over -10 or whatever the measurement is.

However, a colleague had it done last year – he had a pretty unpleasant time of it. Certainly wasn't trouble-free.

My sister in law has recently had it done and she is over the moon with the results.

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club. Thats why you got the Bullet Agar...Adam Pearson wants winners...not useless gits like you. "Rugby League is a simple game played by simple people. Rugby Union is a complex game played by wankers."

Ophthalmic sister where I work said she wouldn't go near it. She's still wary of the long term results.

Is it really that bad having to wear glasses?

My eyes are far too complicated to have laser treatment. I was really disappointed when I heard that news but life moves on. My heroes Kim Jong Il and David Ruffin wore glasses so spectacle wearers are in good company.

The consultation went well anyway.

It took around 80 minutes, they did an array of eye tests and my prescription was -1.5 and slightly worse in my left eye.

I'm booked in for the procedure on March 24th.

My personal advisor throughout the process is married to a guy called Stephen Lyons, who played for Wakefield and Hull KR back in the 70's. We got talking about it after she noticed my FC scarf icon_biggrin.gif
