Would You Rather Go To The Dentist or Eye Doctor?

[The Murphinator]

I would much rather go to the Dentist, because I can't stand when the eye doctor puts that puff of air in your eye. I flinch everytime, and it takes forever for them to get it in both eyes.

I'd generally say the dentist, unless it's for something that requires one of those rubber dam things. I don't mind the shots or even some pain but I can't stand that getting waterboarded feeling. Plus my few eye doctor trips have been pretty uneventful. It's only been within the last 7 or 8 years where my eyesight has started to head a little south. Was 20/15 most of my life. I did have to go once because an eyelash follicle got infected. Had this big painful bump that felt like I was dragging jagged glass across my eyeball. The solution was to flip my eyelid inside out and slice it open to drain it. I don't know what was worse, the deadening shot or the scalpel slice that felt like a red hot poker. Dentist, definitely prefer the dentist.

1000x % the dentist. I don’t think you can be knocked out for any eye surgery. I 

 

I am a perfect candidate for Lasix. I have the money. I cannot do it. I cannot even entertain the tought of doing it.

Good god you people have lost your minds.  The dentist is the devil.

I actually need to visit the dentist.

I have horrendous gag reflexes, so... would prefer the eye doctor.

 

EDIT:  plus, the sounds of the dentists office are like nails on a chalkboard.

It depends are you talking about being optometrist which is a doctor that prescribes glasses or an ophthalmologist an MD that specializes in the treatment of eye disease?   I would pick Dentists they do very little of the day to day work any more, it is almost all  done by the dental hygienist and the dentist just checks it.  My son doesn't even see the orthodontist that much anymore, he goes into have his braces tightened and the hygienist does all the work.

My eye doctor has a machine that takes pictures of the inside of my eyes. I don't have to get my eyes dilated or anything
