Hi all!
I thought I’d pop in to let you know my fun news: I just had LASIK yesterday!
It was more harrowing than I thought it would be, but relatively simple and gazoinks! it’s the day after and I’m seeing 20/20. No joke! The eye doctor confirmed it this morning!
Here’s my pre-op photo:
They put a sticker on my chest with all my info: what surgery I was having, which eyes, yadda yadda. Then they stuck two round red office stickers (very high tech) above each of my eyes to indicate that both were to be worked on.
Here’s a photo from today, less than 24 hours after my cornea was sliced and flipped open and a laser “resurfaced” my eye:
A few broken blood vessels in that left eye, but other than that, good as new! The slit in my cornea should heal in about 5 days, so no eye makeup or other activities that could get any bacteria in my eyes for a week. It’s amazing what they can do, people.
I’ll be back soon with more glittering, buy or diys, you know, all the things.

Congrats on your enhanced vision! I’m too much of a chicken, so I admire you for doing this!
So glad it went well! And only you could look cute with two giant red dots over your eyes.
Matt was so glad to not need his glasses anymore. He did have dry eye for a while, but he used special drops and it resolved itself.
