“My
contacts were expensive. I would forget to take them out at night, and I would
wake up with dry, itchy eyes. Glasses were always in the way…I didn’t like
the way they looked or felt. I play volleyball and participate in
CrossFit workouts and found glasses were inconvenient for these sports.
Before the surgery, I was a bit nervous, but I felt like
the procedure would be safe and effective. My questions were answered in
appropriate detail, from the procedure itself to the financing options. I
was very excited. I had heard nothing but positive comments from friends
who had had the procedure themselves, so my nervousness was assuaged by the
time we were ready to begin.
I was a little anxious during the surgery, but the doctor
was quite helpful in explaining each step and what I may expect. The
worst part, strangely enough, was a slight odor that I could smell after the
laser-work had begun. I was pleasantly surprised at the quick pace of the
surgery. I felt no pain and was able to get right up and walk to the
waiting room when we'd finished.
After the surgery, I felt a little sleepy, but I was
very excited as I could actually see better than I had without my glasses
previously. In the days after, I was very excited my continuously
improving vision. The staff went over all of the follow-up information
that was necessary for me, and I felt confident in going home and taking care
of my eyes post-op. Now, months after the surgery, my vision is better
than ever, and I continue to revel in my 20/20 vision.
After LASIK, I save time in the morning getting
ready. It’s a small thing, but to be able to just get up and go is
wonderful. I absolutely LOVE being able to see my clock without putting
my glasses on in the morning. Also, not needing to switch out of my glasses or
wear contacts when I am tired is great, especially in early morning CrossFit
sessions or late-night volleyball matches. J”
