[QUOTE="not-so-lucky, post: 1362208, member: 357786"] Just to give you the heads up about the treatments.... It genuinely sounds more painful than it 'actually' is. I was a very poorly controlled Type 2 for many years.. Consequently my eyes have suffered as a result, I've pegged up around 5 injections in each eye and maybe 7 sessions of laser. It really isn't very painful at all even if you do need anything doing. But remember; the docs are usually good at their job and the after effects last less than 3 days for injections and less than a day for laser... It's something I've become 'used to' lol - but it's not painful I promise; there's plenty of numbing drops and anaesthetic used. [/QUOTE]
