18 days post-op

So it's now been over 2 weeks since my laser eye surgery. I can see quite well for mid distances. Close up and far away is getting better though. On Friday I noticed a big difference. I could read street signs on the bus ride to work. At work the computer screen was much clearer. This all after just 2 weeks. Pretty amazing in my books.

At the last check up things were still healing well. My next appt is Feb 5th. It will be almost a month from my surgery. Update to follow then.

I'm still marveling at all the things I can see now. Also, still trying to adjust the glasses that are no longer there. Went to remove them before bed the other night. Old habits die hard I guess.

Seeing is believing!

Well, it's now 4 full days since I had lasers shot into my eyes.

My vision has changed a little over the past few days, from good to blurry and then getting better again. I'm now able to go on the computer for short periods of time (obviously since I'm posting this) and can watch TV too. I slept quite a bit the first few days but now I'm back to normal pretty much. My first appointment was good, all was healing well. My next one is Tuesday where they (hopefully) will take out the bandage contacts I'm currently wearing.

Although it's not as good as with glasses before it's much better than without. I can see the alarm clock. Building signs. In the shower. And I know that it's going to get better with time.

I've heard it before but it really is true. It's amazing and I can't believe I didn't do it sooner.

Today is the day.

Yes the day I've been both dreading and hoping I could fast forward to is here. Laser eye surgery day. I am excited, but I'm nervous too.

I've worn glasses since I was 10 so it'll be quite the change. A good change, but a change nonetheless.

I'll post a little more later once I'm able to see enough to play on the computer.

Send some happy thoughts my way!
