Jesus...no. Cocaine is only used by ophthalmologists to diagnose a single medical condition, not for anesthesia.

But that doesn't make as good of a story

I just don't want to see a doctor, I went in for something different than what they found

OD

This condition is something that should be monitored, and you should see an ophthalmologist ASAP in the future if you ever develop flashes, floaters, or shadows in your vision

Imagine in 15 yrs you suddenly have severe vision loss in one eye because you had a retinal detachment. Just because you didn't feel like taking 2hrs out of your day to go to the doctor to see if he recommended a 2min painless procedure that could have prevented that vision loss

They corrected my hole in the retina in office with a laser in about 5 minutes. Basically cauterized the edges of the hole like you would a rope so it doesnt shred anymore. Prepare your anus though cause it’s about $150 a minute. It’s bright as hell, and annoying, but no pain.

Where do you people come up with this stuff? No doctor charges by the minute or hour.
