LASIK

I can see!

I had LASIK done last week at the Stanford Eye Laser Center by Dr. Edward Manche.

After 30 years of wearing glasses, it is absolutely fantastic to be glasses free! And yesterday, my lovely wife helped me pick out cool (non-prescription!) sunglasses off the shelf! Since I hated (and did not wear) contacts, this was a new and novel experience!

Obviously, the decision to undergo surgery is highly personal, but my experience was very positive. I was pretty anxious leading up to the surgery as I've never had any type of surgery or really any serious health issues / procedures before. And the thought of having my eyes operated on was especially scary - what if something goes wrong? Gulp!

Dr. Manche and his team at the Stanford Eye Laser Center were absolute pros! They made me feel at ease, and walked me through everything multiple times so I knew exactly what to expect. The whole procedure was so fast and painless that there was no time to be nervous once we got started.

Probably the worst part was keeping my eyes closed for the rest of the day to allow my eyes to heal. You can only sleep and listen to music for so long before you get really bored! However, when it comes to eye surgery, boring is good!

My left eye is 20/15 and my right eye is 20/20. WOW!
