Beware this is a Lasik rant!

[erickgriffin]

Well today was my one week visit back to Shoffner's office after my Lasik. He still lives...

Day 1 Saturday, tired but could see through the blur
Days 2-4 Vision better than I have ever had
Day 5 half the day goes by and suddenly I start having problems
Day 6-9 Vision get consistently worse, can't read more than three pages of a book without

Ack, sounds like no phone. :(
Heal quickly!

Er, fun.
Sounds like no fun.
Dunno why I typed "phone."
Can I claim early senility? :D

Remember, like I said - because it happened to me - that the automatic strain you're doing (due to obsessing about it) is causing you headaches and eye fatigue. So you're making it worse by acting like testing yourself every five minutes is going to change something.

It's not.
You're right.
It's blurry.
Status quo.

But chill out or you're just going to be miserable while waiting out the adjustment period.

With love,

You're awesome Katie :-)

I hope you get better and soon. I'm extremely visually oriented and I can't imagine what it would be like to adjust like that. Listen to Katie, relax (yeah it's easier to say than do) and do what you can without overdoing. The adjustment will come but on it's own. And no, I do not write fortune cookies.
