I have had a lot of medievel things done to me by doctors and allways just toughed it out but the thought of somebody cutting on my eye while I am awake and watching is beyond scarry for me. Maybe I have too good an imagination... anyhow... I just can't seem to work up the courage to have it done. When they figure out a way to do it without cutting on my eye Im in.

Lazs ... I too always had 20/10 in both eyes ... such is not the case these days. The eye doctor told me that I suffer from presbyopia ...
-----------------------------
Presbyopia is a vision condition in which the crystalline lens of your eye loses its flexibility, which makes it difficult for you to focus on close objects.
Presbyopia may seem to occur suddenly, but the actual loss of flexibility takes place over a number of years. Presbyopia usually becomes noticeable in the early to mid-forties. Presbyopia is a natural part of the aging process of the eye. It is not a disease and it cannot be prevented.

which cannot be corrected with this type of surgery.
Lazs ... were just gettin' old ... simple as that.
