LASEK: Discharged

Well. Had my final check up this morning, approximately 11 months after my laser eye surgery. The optician agreed my eye sight was better than 20/20 and that she would discharge me as a patient which concludes my treatment! 11 months on, I can say I don’t need to rely on glasses anymore. I do … Continue reading »

20/20

It’s almost coming up to 8 weeks post LASEK operation and I had my check up this morning. I could read better than 20/20 but I’m ever so slightly long sighted now. Ultralase said that those who were previously short sighted will find that during the healing time the vision will tend back to short … Continue reading »

LASEK – 1 month

Well it’s coming up to 5 weeks after my LASEK surgery now. I’d have to say my left eye is almost perfect. My right eye still feels a little gritty at times as if I got an eye-lash in my eye. The vision with the right eye alone is a little fuzzy although I can … Continue reading »

LASEK – two weeks on

Had a check up today. My eye sight has improved but it’s still not 20/20. The optometrist said I had no prescription but it was just a matter of waiting for the eye to fully heal. My eyes are a bit dry so I should try to use the drops more often. She also said … Continue reading »

Day 10-ish

I left work early today because I wasn’t feeling well and suddenly started feeling feverish. Had a short nap just before dinner and am now feeling a bit better. Still got a stuffy nose though. Anyway, it’s 10 or 11 days post-op now (depending on how you count it). I’ve still got the fuzziness in … Continue reading »

LASEK – one week on

Since 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 … Continue reading »
