Many people would prefer to live with an amputation or any other manageable health defect than without their natural sightedness
This is true, living without sight can be extremely difficult, I believe slightness is the most important sense we have.
I am really sorry about what happened to your relative, and there is always the small possibility of something going wrong, but in my family there is a person who went through this type of surgery because she wanted to fix her myopia and stop using glasses, everything went perfect with zero problems.
So even though this is not a perfect procedure, it is very good to have this option for the people who want to fix their eyes.
Do you know what went wrong with the procedure applied to your relative?
you will not entertain suicidal thoughts
This sounds extreme don't you think?
Thanks for visiting.
Perhaps he was just unlucky but the way he talks about it, it looks like he was made to under the process under duress in order to part away with his money. Currently, he rarely sees, and cannot drive.
Some folks who had had to take their lives over amputation, how much more total blindness? I don't thinks so sir. It's a possibility.
