PRK Day 29

Let’s start off with the positive aspects of my PRK surgery journey. I try to not write about every miserable feeling I experience because I don’t want my blog (my memoirs?) to only be bad. Though I do tend to keep those unhappy feelings locked inside when it would be advantageous to vent them. But I digress, that’s not what I was writing about. I was talking about the positive things with my eye at this time.

1. When I wake up in the morning, the world is amazingly clear.
2. I am not in any kind of pain.

But my vision gets blurry pretty rapidly, usually within about 30 minutes of waking up.

I had another follow-up appointment today, most of my appointment was with Julius, the guy who is going to be an ophthalmologist and is doing an internship/residency/whatever at my eye doctor’s office. He’s a nice guy and was very attentive, plus he explains what he’s looking at/for more than the technicians in the office. read more »

Kevin LASIK Day 3

On Thursday, my husband Kevin had LASIK done on both of his eyes. We got to the surgery center, they had him dress up in the typical garb of shoe booties and a cap. Since he buzzes his hair, the cap kept catching on his head stubble, making for a very stylish look!
