Where did she have it done?

I backed out of getting Lasik about 6 years ago but been thinking about doing it again. I'm sooooo tired of wearing glasses and I can't touch my eye balls so contacts are O-U-T.

Some military branches require you to have perfect vision.

Can they detect that your eyes have been operated on?

<sigh>women....</sigh>

my sister was the same till her eyes got worse and worse and she had permanent headache. then she finally discovered that when you are too vain to wear glasses you can wear contacts ;)

not going to let a tico do it? wtf? good luck rob, im sure it'll be fine, everyone i know who's done it has been very happy

Congrats. ;)

They gave me some crazy dilation drops, it was like being on ecstacy for a few hours...

The army pays for PRK (bladeless) as far as I can tell.

wakkie wakkie rob...

sent you an icq

Well that was uncomfortable as hell... I could have used more valium and more numbing drops. Was very happy that it was over.

Had an hour of intense burning with crazy tearing, but I managed to pass out and wake up 6 hours later feeling fine... I spent the rest of the night with my eyes closed for the most part but every time I looked at something I was surprised at the clarity.

Just woke up, eyes are pretty blurry from all the different eyedrops and shit, but can't wait to head to my follow up appointment and see how the world looks.

I remember the morning after and gazing with wonder that I could see the end of my bed without my glasses.

Glad things went well hun!

I remember smelling my eyes burning... ;)

I had my gf at the time (porn chick Candy Manson..lol) walk me to my car.. she drives home.. I passed out for hours.. woke up and walked outside.. look out of the dark glasses and behold.. the most amazing crystal-clear clarity Id ever seen.. it was like buying new eyes.. couldn't believe it.. plopped $4000 in $20bills down to them.. it was the best buy ever.

Congrats on yer new eyes, yer gonna love it...use the drops and the lubricating drops for as long as poss.. it helps not get dry eye and helps in healing or you might see a little bit of halos again someday.. which is kinda normal..but at least I can read signs a mile away again.

Let's see if it improves your shooting accuracy at hockey Wed :winkwink:

good luck with it, I want to get it done also but since my eyes seem to still change...I would need to go back for adjustments more often. My sister inlaw had it done 4 years ago...and she just started to notice a slight decrease from 20/20.

I'll probably skip hockey, I don't want to get sweat in my eyes and shit...

Hehe....

Oh good point, I guess you should prob skip a week I remember they had told me not to play any sports for a week or two until the part of the eye they lasered settles in (the part you should wear the shield during sleep to avoid rubbing and moving).

good for you mr fuzebox. you will love it

Done it a few years ago, but needed to redo once for every eye, however its good now ;)
