20/15!!!

I survived lasik surgery and now I see 20/15 (that's better than 20/20)! I wasnt really scared until I actually got on the surgery table. Overall I spent 3 hours there, but the procedure itself was less than 15 minutes. I didnt feel the laser at all, but I did smell a burnt smell. I did also feel some pain and pressure when they opened up my cornea flap, but for only like 5 seconds.
After the procedure, I had to keep my eye closed for 4 hours, so I took a nap.
When I woke up, I couldnt open my eyes because my eyelids were glued shut from all the medicated eye drops. So for those asking if I saw perfectly after I opened my eyes, Id say no because, its still a little hazy. They said it will be a little hazy for a couple of months as my cornea heals. But I have no complaints. Every night before I go to bed, I always think I have to take off contacts since I've been doing it for so long. Stacie videotaped some of my lasik procedure experience. Hopefully, she has time to edit it and Ill post it up here.
