I Can See!

untitled
Technology and modern medicine truly are a miracle!  I had LASIK Eye Surgery yesterday and as of my post-op appointment this morning, I’m seeing right around 20/20 and my eyes should continue to improve over the coming months.  It’s awesome!  I went to bed with blurry/fuzzy vision after my surgery, and after a 4 hour nap (thanks Valium!), I woke up seeing clearly with only a little irritation and dryness. 

Today my eyes have been dry and a little irritated, but mostly just tired.  Most of the time it seems like I’m just wearing my contacts (which I’ve worn for probably 13-14 years) so it’ll be neat to wake up tomorrow morning (or the middle of the night since Abby has been waking up crying lately) and just be able to see without any glasses or contacts.  It’s kind of strange!

I’m really grateful to Dr. Hoopes for blessing me with this surgery.  I didn’t think I’d have it for many years and I feel so lucky and blessed!

I want to post about our Christmas but this is about all the computer time my eyes can handle….maybe tomorrow.
