Do-it-yourself laser eye surgery...
-
Do-it-yourself laser eye surgery is now available. I've done it and it was easy. Now, sans glasses, I can fly a fighter jet and follow my dream to be an astronaut. The kit is inexpensive and not really painful. It hurt about as much as pulling ear hairs -- you know, it smarts for a moment but the pain is fleeting. The device is precalibrated for your eyeglass prescriptions so unless you know someone with exactly the same prescription as you the kit can only be used on yourself the one time. (Actually once each eye).

You are joking Ross?

That is so cool. Unfortunately the "Check Out" button isn't working today. I was going to order two set so I could do a friend too.
That's ok. I'll bet it will go on sale soon.

The link for t-shirts seemed to work...? Interesting hoot (though I couldn't find a disclaimer?) My biggest LOL was the use of a hospital bed pee bottle to house the device!

nice hoax

Is it April already?

Mmmmm ..... Ross probably regrets the self op now as he is obviously having difficulty reading these posts

I don't see any problem with the product.

I'm glad to see others saw some of the humour in the idea of do-it-yourself laser eye surgery. Its funny how some don't just dismiss it outright as foolishness - even if only for a moment. We want to believe. I read a long thread of postings about it at another site. It was crazy how many people gave it even a few moments of belief.

Guys,
I will admit I was taken in for a while until I read the thing fully. The T-Shirts were the giveaway. Just goes to show the POWER of good presentation!
But on the other hand one never knows what's around the corner. Does anyone remember the April Fools on the old forum that was going to bring us BroadBand Connection via the Sewer Mains? Again it was convincing presentation. Well if you did, check this out http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7104011.stm

I like how they give you the option to buy one for the left eye and one for the right

My fav was the cartoon instructions.

Well, now you have hawk-like vision, you might want to try this.
