LASIK Aftermath.
I went to sleep immediately after I got home from LASIK surgery.
It feels as though someone bashed my eye and it felt really sore. WHen I try to open my eyes, it just felt like someone was shining bright light at me and it was just too strenuous on my eye muscles to keep them open.
The surgery itself was pretty bearable. The clinic made a good effort to make all patients make sure that they understand the process, how it is done and the aftercare. I knew exactly what’s going on and what was going to come later, the sensation itself is bearable, there was absolutely NO PAIN involved in the process of the surgery. There was some discomfort but it’s feels pretty okay.
I could see immediately after the surgery. And having perfect eyesight is such a gift. But the healing process as everything just rushes in to heal the area was described as above. I highly recommend just going to sleep immediately after you get home.
I just got home and I had a surreal feeling of wanting to go to the toilet to remove my contact lens….except I don’t need them anymore~!!! I just hope that the healing process would be okay.
Right now my vision fluctuates, sometimes it’s blurrier than other times. I take some time to get used to looking at lights when it’s dark but I guess it’s all part of healing. I’m taking care not to touch my eye area and putting on eyedrops every hour to aid in healing the cornea.
That’s all for now.
