Lasik surgery worked!

[judy]

I had lasik surgery on my reading eye about 1 1/2 months ago and remember posting that I was worried that it hadn't worked as well as I wanted it to. It took a long time, but I can see the computer, and read without glasses, unless it's tiny
letters on white on a pink background kind of label. I can see a lot of labels though.

The funny thing is, I went to the surgeon for a check-up a couple of weeks ago and he told me that he hadn't done it strong enough so that I would be able to read without drugstore glasses. I'm 20/60 in the right eye (the left is for distance).
He said the focus would be off because each eye would be too different or something. The differential would be too large. I know what he meant, but when I first had it done, both eyes were 20/20 - one for close-up and one for distance.

Anyway, who cares? Whatever my vision is, I have obviously learned to adapt and can see well enough. So - I'm delighted!

So, for anyone who's thinking of lasik and is afraid - well, I can't tell you not to be afraid - but this is the second time for my right eye, I'm 60 and healed nicely, and I don't need glasses.
