Eye fun

Signed up today. I'm having Lasik done Thursday the 28th of this month. I could have had it done this Friday, but they require a followup in 24 hours, and someone dared to set their wedding for Saturday. So 7 more days of contacts, 3 days in glasses land, then hopefully normal eyes from then on.

I keep pondering this, although I just got an eye exam a month ago for the first time in a few years, and it seems my prescription changed.... so I guess I won't be able to do this any time soon.

I had an eye exam last December and my perscription had changed a bit too. It's still worth looking in to. They give a full eye exam and tell you if you are eligible before zapping you, and the fee includes 12 months of touch up treatments if needed.


Also, everyones perscription is always changing. They say even with Lasik, I'll probably need reading glasses when I'm in my 40s or 50s. I'd rather have a decade of 20/20 before I need reading glasses than wearing contacts for the next 10 years.
