Since I last wrote about my eyes, I have been to a consultation for all-laser Lasik vision correction surgery. I am a candidate. After extensive testing, I learned that it will cost $3,598. As part of the testing, the nice lady put drops in my eyes to dilate my pupils. They really dilated! With my pupils that dilated, I couldn't see anything up close. It was scary. Fortunately, Curtis was there to drive me home.
I have a tentative surgery date of 1/8/09. I might move that back a week, but it's nice to have a date set.

On 8 Dec 08, I had PRK (declined all-laser LASIK). Recovery has been as expected. The best part: cost me $0--a benefit of being active duty military. (And if I ever need a follow-up surgery in, say, 20 years, that surgery will cost me the same amount, regardless of whether I stay until retirement.) Sure glad I didn't have to spend nearly $4K....
I want this surgery but am not ready to put of almost $4000 for it. Someday though...Someday.
