Hope your op goes well, I was assured yesterday that the apprehension we may have before the op is completely unwarranted.

The pre-op appointment was straight forward. 3 lots of eye drops, BP check, talked about risks (which are minimal) and what to expect. 3 types of scans to go through which didn't take long. The surgeon was very reassuring and was told the op will take about 10-15 mins. I'm booked for the op on the 9th Nov, then follow up 3 weeks afterwards. So far so good. Actually can't wait to get it done.
