For those following along, it went great!

The procedure itself was as comfortable as they could make it, you know, for cutting a flap in your eye and blasting part of it away.

This morning I went in for followup and have 20/15 vision. A mild amount of blood under one flap which will dissipate within a week.

So far, only mild discomfort after the initial healing yesterday, which was pretty irritating. Now, it just feels like there's an eyelash that won't go away. I have to keep reminding myself that I can't adjust my contact lenses any more.

There is some staring I noticed looking at the clock display in a dark room, but nothing worse than the old pair of glasses I was wearing in the interim. But that's supposed to almost completely fade over 6 months.

I know that, "time will tell", but thus far, I'm very optimistic. I'd definitely recommend this doctor to anyone.

Good to hear! Do you mind sharing around how much it ended up costing you?
