I had a courtesy call from Ultralase while I was at work this morning. They wanted to double check the time and details of my appointment and to run through the surgery day. For example I'm not allowed to wear make up (on the day or for two weeks afterwards), I can't wear perfume on the day and also I shouldn't wear my soft contact lenses for a certain amount of time prior to surgery. No problem there as I haven't had mine in for two weeks now. I thought it was really nice of them to call. It seemed reassuring, and obviously a sign of a well-organised company.
Oh and she also wanted to double check about how I was going to pay. I'm currently plucking up the courage to pay with my card online or by phone. I just haven't worked up the courage to say goodbye to all those possibilities - holidays, new shoes, etc. etc. But I suppose I better had. No pay, no spec free. Actually when I mentioned to someone at work that I had to pay in advance they pulled 'ooh isn't that dodgy' face. Well no, it's not really. I mean if you go to a shop you have to buy your goods before you can leave with them. Do they think Ultralase should just zap all who come through their doors and then invoice them afterwards? Sadly life doesn't work like that.
I'm getting seriously excited having the surgery done now. A flash of nerves yes, but then a great torrent of oh wowo owowowow no more glasses! I've done my research -for example the Ultralase forums have a whole section devoted to The Treatment Day, amongst many others and that means I know I'm not in for any nasty surprises.
Only 4 more days to go!
