My procedure was performed Friday morning. I was nervous, yet felt I was in good hands, having chosen a respectable doctor with extensive experience. The entire process took only minutes and immediately after surgery I was seeing well, although it was cloudy and blurry. I've been using the drops they prescribed and after my check-up consultation yesterday, the doctor says I am almost 20/20 already. (The blurriness is to be expected at first, and will subside over time.)
This feels like a miracle. I can see my feet in the shower and I don't have to put on glasses to get a drink of water at night! Twice I have caught myself pushing up phantom glasses on my nose and last night as I lay down for bed, I reached with both hands to take off glasses I no longer need! 20 hours after the surgery, I was able to drive myself the 65 miles to the laser center for my follow-up appointment. Without glasses!
After the appt. I went shopping for non-prescription sunglasses (for the first time ever) and found a pair that rang up for $1.65!
