Nothing to be afraid of. I had both of mine done 11 years ago. I don't know about the laser surgery, but with mine they gave me a General Anesthesia (you're awake but you just don't feel anything). Also, you need to bring another person with you who can drive you home because they won't let you drive because of the Anesthesia. With me the Doctor made a small, stepped incision on the outer edge of my eyeball, inserted a probe and broke up my lens with ultrasonic sound waves. Then they vacuumed out the particles and put in the new plastic lens. The lens is soft, flexible plastic and is rolled up & about the diameter of a pencil lead. They just insert it, unroll it, and position it in place using a special microscope. I had the Left eye done first, then had to wait a couple of months to make sure there were no complications, and then went in and had the Right eye done.
Because I was unable to get anyone to drive me home when I had the Right eye done, I had to sign a special waiver because I opted to have the surgery done with NO ANESTHESIA. They said that in all of the years that they had been doing that procedure, I was only the second person to do it with NO Anesthesia. YES, it's a little bit painful and you feel EVERYTHING that they do, and when they're done - no more pain, and I drove myself home (93 miles) .

On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
