[QUOTE="Gary Macomber, post: 15294417, member: 169132"] Missed this first time around, I wore contacts from around 2000 up until about a year ago, I still have some from the last time I ordered them but I would wear them maybe twice and then they would sit there. I had my eye surgery on Saturday, I had to do PRK because my cornea is to thin for LASIK. Lasik they make a flap, PRK they scrub the top layer away making the recovery time longer. Day of Surgery was pretty simple, procedure took maybe 5 minutes from prep to leaving the OR. Instructed to go home and sleep, I read online a bunch of places give Valium or other medications, I got nothing except the required meds for recovery but all was well anyway. My right eye was clear while my left eye was blurry. Day 2 woke up at 3am feeling like I had sand in my eye, finally got back to sleep around 5am for a couple hours and the entire time awake I had that sandy feeling, it sucks. I slept as much as I could throughout the day which is a recurring theme here. Day 3 was even worse, the sandy feeling was gone but both my eyes burned like crazy when closed and when I tried to open them the light sensitivity was even worse than the burning even with the sunglasses on, so I slept most of the day. Day 4, today everything feels much better, woke up with my eyes feeling fine but I couldn't see much of anything. It feels like I have a thick blanket of fog over my eyes or like I am trying to look under water without goggles. It has cleared up some throughout the day, enough to read and type this but there is still some to go. The bad sight is attributed to my cornea almost being fully built back up, I napped as much as I could but I was also able to watch a little bit of TV. So far from what I have seen, those few minutes where my sight would be clear, it has been worth it. [/QUOTE]
