Free Laser Eye Surgery on NHS
57
Laser eye surgery is a revelation that can has been unveiled over the past few years that can help to cure both short and long sighted patients. Laser eye surgery involves cutting a flap the Cornea, and then using laser technology to reshape the cornea; resulting in better vision for the patient. Most patients complain of a little pain for the first few days but then enjoy the results of no longer having to wear glasses or contact lenses.
The 4 most common types of laser eye surgery are: Lasik, Lasek, PKR & Epi - LASEK
Surgery costs from as little as £200/$300 per eye, depending on the work required. The NHS do not provide the service for the most common types of laser eye surgery but they do however provide Laser surgery for diabetic retinopathy and macular oedema as these can lead to a total loss of vision. Laser eye surgery is an opportunity to not have to worry about taking your glasses everywhere you go, being too afraid of playing sports that might cause breakage or embaressment, feeling confident about yourself and your appearance, all for as little as £200 per eye. It is a shame that the NHS do not provide this service but i think there would be quite literally thousands of people queing at the doors if this was the case. Its definately worth looking into if you are contemplating the benefits.

How lame is that? No free NHS laser surgery. Thanks Labour" Thanks Tories! Useless rubbish. At least in Cuba this treatment is available free of charge for all. I'm voting BNP.
