In just about two days now I should be free of my glasses (or far less dependent) for the first time in 22 years. On Thursday I’ll under go lasik surgery to have my vision corrected.
I’m somewhat nervous, because like any surgical procedure there are complications. I’m also quite excited because my vision has been terrible for years. Without glasses I can’t see anything in focus that’s more than a few inches from my face. That should all change after Thursday.

Wishing you a successful procedure.
I’ve had glasses since 4th grade, and am also essentially blind without them. However, I’m not comfortable that they know enough about the long-term effects of lasik surgery to go through with the procedure myself. Not to mention that I have too vivid an imagination, and just thinking about what’s involved is enough to cause me to adore my glasses.
