I cannot believe how long has passed since I posted the 24 hour update - life has been so busy that the time has just flown by.
I went for my 1 month checkup just before Christmas and was told that my sight was 20:20 but my left eye still had some improving to make! I notice that some days it is my left eye and some days (not as often) it is my right eye that is weaker. This is totally expected as the scarring round the cornea cut is still healing.
My sight is much better than it ever was with contact lenses, so I have no regrets, or complaints. I keep lubricating my eyes with eye drops daily - doing what I am told for once!!
What is really great is being able to get up in the morning and see, to have a shower and see, to be able to go out in the rain and see. Fantastic.
When I sent to Stobo between Christmas and New Year I still had to wear goggles in the pool, I am looking forward to the time when I can swim without them. Some opticians say after a week you can swim without goggles, but mine would rather that I didnt.
I am going to Portugal in a few weeks - it will be brilliant not to have to take all the gubbins with me - more room for wine in my bag on the way home!

Stobo? Portugal? Talk about the good life. If you need any help while you're there just shout!

Glad it has all gone so well. My daughter in law had hers done about 6 months agho and she is soooo pleased as well. Great!
Wow, just think of all that you will see more clearly this year.
Fabulous.
Thank you for your pm.

I was really interested to read you account of laser surgery and sorry I missed the previous post. I am very short-sighted (and I do mean very!) but it's correctable with lenses so I'm not sure I would be as brave as you. I am absolutely delighted that you're doing so well - it must be a wonderful feeling to wake up and see!
Hi Wizzard,
Lucky you going to Portugal, what part are you going to?
I am so pleased that Eye Op went well Wizzard, it will of course make a huge difference, and even though you have to wear goggles for swim, your eyes will feel a whole lot better.
