Default I Can See Clearly Now............

...that I had the Lasik procedure done on Friday night. It is the greatest thing that I did to help myself. Now everyone can see how good looking I am without glasses.

I had to go and get some sunglasses, so I started at one of the finer eye glass establishments; Walmart. I found a pair on sale for $34 and now I am KOOL.

See you later(get it).

I had lasik about 8 years ago right when it came out. One of the best experience that I have ever done. Mine is starting to "wear off" a little and I think I am due for another correction.

Well now it is Sunday and I still grab for my glass frames. I guess I forgot that I even got the surgery. I have missed 2 of 4 of my eye drop wettings. I keep forgetting about it. zero pain.

Mark,
I'm 20/300 in my left eye and 20/150 in my right. I've had contacts and glasses as long as I can remember. I've thought about the Lasik. Did they mention anything about a halo effect at night? Keep me posted on your progress. Eye can See me doing it too!

They told me about halos at night for the first week or so. I failed to see what they were talking about. The sun and bright lights never affected me before.

My sister had it done a few years ago. She had the halo at night thing for about a week. Her eyes were in the same range as yours. She is very happy with the lasik.

Glad to hear it Mark
