    Man that was a piece of cake. Took longer to prep me for surgery than it did to do the eye surgery. They did the left eye today and I can see pretty good with it. But it is blurry from all the eye drops and the eye is still dilated a lot.

    This is really good news, Capt. Take it easy now and let the healing finish. You'll be up to snuff in no time at all.

    Great news!

    My eye is a lot better this morning. The dilation is almost back to normal. Everything is a lot brighter an clearer. Colors are fantastic too! But with the changes in the left eye, now my right eye seems a lot worse than it was! :) Now it will be hard to wait to get the other eye done!
