If I wanted to? I couldn't believe I was getting the opportunity....of course I wanted to! I called LasikPlus the very next day to get my free consultation!
They wanted to schedule my surgery before the marathon, but I wasn't sure about recovery and didn't want anything to get in my way of finishing that race, so I held back for a few weeks and scheduled this past Friday as the BIG day!
I was so pleased with the professionalism and friendliness of everyone at LasikPlus. I felt comfortable and confident with them right away. My sister, Emily, had LASIK done several months (maybe a year ago) and had only positive things to say about it! Every single person who I know, who had it, raved about how wonderful it was...I guess I was going to see (haha) firsthand!
Ryan caught a picture of me ready to go! I'm pretty excited...and a little embarrassed he's taking a picture of me.
Here I am in the temperature controlled operating room. My eyes are closed because I was so tired from the 2 tylenol PM they gave me. I thought for sure this would knock me out for the rest of the night, but after a 1hr. nap I was good to go...unfortunately.
My eyes stung pretty bad when I woke up from my nap - I could have used a couple more hours in dreamland. Anyways...
The trickest part of the whole surgery was the Dr. trying to take that hair cap off my head when the procedure was over -- it got caught on my earrings. haha I'm a mess. Seriously, it was like the hardest part of the whole day.
It was hard not to go strut my stuff around town with these sweet shades, but I just had to take a nap. I tried to look happy in this picture, but my eyes hurt and I was tired!
