Surgery on my right eye went fine yesterday, as expected. I was a little apprehensive but actually went through the process OK. It was kinda weird being able to see the different stuff coming at my eye! I guess the "relaxer" they gave me via IV did its job. It was no more than an hour from the time they took me back until LOML and I were leaving. The actual surgery was only about 10 minutes. They taped my eye closed for me to leave and it came off a couple of hours later for us to apply some drops.
When the tape came off, it was kinda scary. I was propped up in bed watching TV. The first vision of the TV (and everything else) was the right eye had it shifted about 10° to the right of center and rotated clockwise about 30°. That condition cleared up over the next 2-3 hours. As the eye began to focus better, I could see color more vividly with the right eye than the left. Today, distance vision is great with my right eye. I can hardly wait until next Thursday to get my left eye done!!!
