The last time I bought a pair of glasses, which was probably about 2 years ago, I told myself that was the last pair of glasses I would ever buy. You see, it has been a long time dream of mine to have Lasik eye surgery and get rid of the need for glasses forever. A couple months ago, I said enough’s enough and it’s time to do it. I started doing my research on different doctors and procedures but I was pretty sure I knew what I wanted. You see, a friend of mine’s girlfriend works at a local eye doctor’s office and had already told me what I needed to look out for. Eye surgery has come a long ways in the last 10 or 15 years. The latest and greatest technology is the Allegretto Wave Excimer Laser. It does a far more efficient job than any other laser ever created. And when it comes to my eyes, why would I want anything less than the best? Well it turns out there is only 1 doctor in southeast Louisiana who uses this technology so I knew that’s where I was going to go. I scheduled my appointment and took the plunge.

It’s been a week now since I had the Lasik procedure done and my eyes feel great! I have 20/20 vision and all looks well. My eyes were a little sore for a couple days but it’s nothing when I look back on it. One thing that I have heard from a few people that have had eye surgery is that their eyes are always dry afterwards and they constantly have to put drops in them. That’s not the case with me so far. I put the drops because they said I should, but my eyes don’t get dry at all so far. Hopefully things will continue to go as well as they have so far because I love my new eyes!
