Well it's not so much a crisis situation as it is an arrogant project. I should maybe explain further. ><
The surgery is essentially installing a 'cradle' inside his missing eye hole. The purpose being a machinist to craft a artificial eye that works similar to Papalymo and Yda's goggles in the main story.
The purpose of the 'cradle' is to make maintenance, upgrades, etc to the prosthetic without requiring near brain surgery every time. Where as the 'eye' would be more or less temp as RP research into magitek deepens and upgrades made, the cradle on the other hand is more or less permanent.
Of course whether or not it's even successful is still a dice roll so to speak, I'm trying to keep it as lore-friendly as possible, considering the somewhat lack of actual official FFXIV lore.
But yeah, unfortunately it's not really a crisis situation. XD
I understand completely. What I was getting at is that if need be, presenting it to Oak as a crisis situation would get him to do the surgery.
 In essence, I'm giving you permission to completely hornswaggle my healer into it for fun and for development of your character. Convince him that it's a crisis, even if it isn't. lol
What a colossal waste of time and energy.
