I went to my day after follow up appointment at LasikPlus this morning. Just 19 hours after the surgery which includes “day of” nap and a full night of sleep last night, my vision is at 20/15! That is the same quality of vision I had with my glasses!

Everything is looking great today. Last night things were clearing up quickly but I could tell that something was a little bit off. Today the ‘off’ sensation is still there a little bit, but very minimal. The main thing is that I still feel like my eyes want to be lazy sometimes and lose focus (mainly when looking at something very near, such as my laptop). But today I was out driving to my appointment as well as a few errands after. I’m scheduled to teach a private music lesson this afternoon that I was hoping I wouldn’t have to cancel, and it looks as though everything will be just fine for it.

My next appointment is scheduled to be in three weeks from now. Until then I just continue to follow the directions on the sheets they gave me:

Use one drop in the operative eye(s) four times a day for one week after surgery

Vigamox (prescription antibiotic)
Omnipred (steroid)
Various single dose samples of artificial tears

The entire time I was in the car with Melissa, I’d pick out a far away sign and see if I could read it, then ask her, “can you read that white/red/blue sign up ahead???”

The results are definitely very exciting!
