I feel very tempted to have a consultation to see if I would qualify. I have SLE,FIBROMYALGIA AND SS. This is the same procedure for catteract surgery. Can anyone see a problem with the healing side. It is said that this procedure doesnt make the dry eyes any worse just worried about medication. Thank you.

I had cataracts removed and my sight was corrected as was your husbands. I had no problems with the healing side of things. Felt a bit like a pirate with the eye patches though. They operated each eye six weeks apart, so it was like have HD quality in one eye and a contact lens in the other!! The difference was amazing! So glad I had it done! Hope that helps. xx

Thank you, I did go and have a consultation but they said no to doing the procedure if I had catteracts then you care take the chance otherwise he didn't think I should. Felt gutted but had to take advise.
