Thanks for this. I’ve been thinking about doing it for years. Need to save up the funds but I think I can handle it

How funny that my captcha word is “operation.”

Anyhoo, Kate, the post-op instructions are to put drops in hourly for the first week. At night, you put in a tears gel that keeps your eye hydrated overnight.

I was afraid of that, too, but it hasn’t been so bad.

Ooh. I want to do LASIK so badly! I’m slightly freaked out about the procedure, but mostly freaked about not being able to rub my eyes for any duration of time. I’ve got some serious dry-eyes and reading that made me want to rub and rub and rub my eyes!

Glad to hear that at least the procedure wasn’t that bad…

Lori — This is a great write-up of the entire procedure and I’m SO glad you faced your fears and can see with 20/20 vision.

But alas, having known you all my life, the better vision is secondary to the fact that you faced your fears and did it anyway.

That is truly an accomplishment! Good for you!

You are a ROCK STAR! I’m so glad you made the plunge. Funny thing is I had it done 9 years ago and I’d be waaaaaay more nervous doing it today than I was back then.

Also, my night vision? Has always sucked. I’m actually going to pick up a pair of glasses to wear when driving in the evenings.
