LASEK – one week on
November 27, 2009 10:02 pm Laser Eye SurgerySince the contact lenses came out, my eyes haven’t really settled down. They’re quite blurry at times and I can feel my right eye being a bit dry. Sometimes it feels like I have sand in my eye but it’s not painful or anything, I just need to blink a couple of times. Seeing small improvements day by day though.
When I put my drops in, my eyesight becomes almost crystal clear so that’s a sign my eyes are a bit too dry. The surface does take time to heal though and that’s probably what is causing me to have what I call fuzzy vision – everything is clear but has a little fuzz around the edges. This is both for near stuff and distant stuff. I guess staring at a computer screen for 12 hours straight doesn’t help…
Driving at night hasn’t been too bad actually despite the fuzzy vision. Oncoming lights are bright but not worse than when I had glasses. If anytihing, I’d have to say my night vision has improved after LASEK as before I use to get huge glare/starbursts.
Anyway, weekend has arrived. I spent the last couple of days in the office as deadlines are approaching but gonna try to rest my eyes this weekend. Sneek in a few hours of study if I can.
