Everything went well yesterday, although I was in enough pain I took strong narcotic pills afterwards and last night. They really helped and even made my hand feel better.
I went for the post op this morning and I can actually read letters on the eye chart with the eye just operated on. I noticed when I got up I could see more detail with that eye than I did a week or two after surgery last time.

- Dental Work Done

- Some Good News And Some Less Than Good
I just returned from the doctor's office. He told me that the surgery looks good and is healing well. The less than good news is that the pressure in my left eye is still high due to swelling in the center of the cornea, which is why my vision is...
