LASIK FTW!

(Here's a link to the full quality, downloadable, & iPodable video of my LASIK on markdehate.com)

So I had my LASIK done yesterday (Friday), and everything seems to have went really well! I got a DVD of the procedure, did some editing, added some titles, and some inappropriate music, and above is the digital proof of my work. It really was painless - a little uncomfortable, but honestly painless. After the procedure, I did a lot of sleeping the rest of the day. Even then, not a big deal - it felt like I had a contact in backwards in my left eye, but that's about it. Today I'm feeling great! I've got lots of eye drops that I use regularly and will be for the next couple of weeks.

The doctor today told me that I'm seeing 20/20 out of my right eye and 20/25 out of my left, which is quite impressive given the amount of correction that I had done and being only 24 hours after the surgery. Good news indeed. I can see mostly normally, although lights at night are a little fuzzy. I would say my vision is a little fuzzy in general, but not bad, I don't have any problems reading anything at this point. I did a little bit of night driving, and it's not something that I'd want to do for an extended period yet. I didn't feel in danger or anything, but lots of fuzzy lights.

Okay, hopefully more updates later, but for now I've got to eat some cereal. Enjoy the up-close and personal footage of my eye (I was going to put it on the YouTuber but it's 14 minutes long, which is too long for the 'Tube).
