If it's in your future, it's easy peasey.
Took about 10 minutes.
Saw a bright light that changed colors and intensity a few times.
Vision was very blurred post op.
Improved throughout the day.
And the next day.
For me, it was a gradual process.
Yesterday I watched the Alabama- West Virginia game.
Took my glasses off and found I could see the screen almost as well.
Yea!
If you have questions, just post them here.
Oh yeah, I guess it goes with out saying...make sure you have a competent ophthalmology surgeon.
I said to my guy, pre-op, "Tell me you've done this hundreds of times with good results and you could do it in your sleep."
He smiled and said "Thousands."
