noel alpins, as in the guy who developed the alpins method of something or other (referenced everywhere, reccommended by two completely seperate people). from what i can tell he's damn good at what he does

he looks quite decent, and the price is definitely right.
Mark Cherny is doing mine.
He was by far the most honest of all the docs I saw, in that he stated everything about my eye and possible errors. Dr Olorenshaw didn't, which allowed me to make the choice.

If the doc is anything like mine, you'll make hints for something stronger and you'll walk away with something completely different to what you were angling for.

I said panadeine forte wasn't working, and ended up with voltaren anit-inflammatories ;)

diclofenac is fucking amazing stuff though. I still have some from my surgery last year and I'm trying to make it last as long as possible.

heh, it's basically ibuprofen. :) Heaps of doctors and physios for pain management told me this of late and I have 5 or 6 repeat scripts of it if you want a bottle of 50. For the pre-requisite URL to verify my info given just to prove it hehe http://www.drugs.com/voltaren.html

spot on, its an nsaid, more potent than ibuprofen, less well received than ibuprofen.
I've found it bloody effective though :)

My dad said laser was the easiest operation possible, and he was back to work within a day. I think they just tape up your eyes for the rest of the day then your vision is perfect from the day after. Good luck.

yeah, although I'm apparently not meant to visit dusty environments for a week or two after, which is kinda sucky, as work=dust++
