I did it! I had the surgery for my eyes on Thursday. And in less than 24 hours I was seeing 20/20 with both eyes.... it's been YEARS ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/shocked.gif) since my vision was corrected to 20/20!! And my left eye still isn't even healed yet! <P>In 2 weeks, I should be 20/15 or better! I'm so excited!!!<P>Ok, now you all have to ignore all the typos and spelling errors... I'm still taking the pain pills and I'm a little dopey (OK, dopier than usual anyway). ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/tongue.gif) <P>Well, time to put the drops in my eyes and go sleepy bye.<P>SEE you all later!<BR>Smooches,<BR>B<P>PS~ sWIFTTy, I promised I'd post how things went... It took all of about 20 minutes from the time they laid me back in the chair til the time I looked up and could read the clock on the wall across the room. ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/grin.gif) <BR>

YEAH! Dawnetta, I had my surgery nearly 2 years ago, it is really wonderful stuff. I also worked for an eye doc at the time so know a bit about the operation. So happy for you!!! I know what a joy it is to wake up and be able to see the alarm clock <P>Lori

Hey Dawnetta,<P>Glad to hear you are doing so well. Watch out for that pot, oh wait, that was G. ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/smile.gif) You were the one that didn't see the wall.<P>What kind of surgery did you have? Was it the RK? I heard that you see stars [from the incisions] at night. I was considering it as well. Not sure if I want to go thru with it, I supposedly have glaucoma. I should be on drops daily for the last 22 years or they said I'd go blind. HA, I fooled them, I went nuts instead.<P>Hope to "see" you in VA. <P>Hey, Bill, I knew the answer!!!<P>Zippy

Bill....<BR>Either I haven't been paying attention, or you cheated! <BR>LOL <BR>Hey, I have a cousin that was born with 3 thumbs. <P>Zippy, Honey, I don't think not using those drops had anything to do with your mental state.... <P>Lori & Sheryl.... <BR>Thanks gals! It's great to be able to see everything now. Oh, and I was legally blind w/o glasses. This is sooooo cool!!!<P>
