Laser eye surgery

[lolsteve]

Could well be this friday just need to phone up and confirm.
Been trying to get my head around this all weekend as i had the consultation on friday. the doctor seems nice enough and with his office being in a very nice hospital it made me a lot more relaxed about the whole groupon thing.
Only problem is I got that he was really pushing for LASEK (the long healing one) as he said there can be problems with LASIK if you do rough activities like boxing or wrestling(I don't) however LASEK does take a little bit longer to heal. The other side of this coin is that the LASEK option costs are not covered by the groupon voucher and would be an extra £500, when he said this the cynic in me shouted "he's just trying to get more money out of you" as the LASEK option is usually the cheapest method.
Also got worried about the complications he talked about of the flap they cut never properly healing apparently and that it weakens the eye structure however online folks have said they've had it done 10-15 years ago and have a wonderful time with no problems ever whilst doing lots of outdoor activities.
I'm just worried that I'll do something simple like rub my eye one day and it'll rip the flap open. Scared of being even more limited by my eyes and having to spend the rest of my life worrying about my eyes. But I just really want this done now and I've been somewhat trapped since I can't get the £1400 back anymore
