I have had horrible eye sight my entire life, about 20/2000 to be precise. To give you an idea how bad that is, without my contacts, I could see my hand clearly when it was 1 inch from my nose...basically I was blind without them. I went from massively heavy glasses that put red spots on my nose from the pressure to contact lenses about twenty years ago. That was a huge improvement but you always had to worry about not falling asleep with them in. About 5 years ago I got LASIK surgery where Tiger Woods got his. The halo'ing was unfortunately a price I paid but I expected this because my cornea was so thin in my left eye that the surgeon needed to think about it before even saying if they could do the operation. This is all about risks and rewards. My problem was so significant that I will deal with the halo'ing even though Green Lights at traffic intersections are a t-shaped mess and dry eyes is another byproduct. This current situation is by far more pleasurable than the misery of being dependent glasses or contact lenses. |
