I had a few hours friday after the surgery that were pretty painful, but after that the main annoyance was that my eye would just 'cry' every few minutes. The doctor took the contact lens 'bandage' off yesterday and said that there is now no sign of the corneal dystrophy in the left eye. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will never come back, but there's no guarantee. Right now, my left eye is still really blurry and pretty scratchy feeling. It's too blurry for me to go back to work and sit for 8hrs in front my PC. I will have the same surgery on my right eye this coming friday and then I'll be done (I hope). Here's hoping that my insurance comes through and pays for it. If not, it's $2,000 per eye... EEP! :confused: Anyway, I'm getting along fine. Mostly watching TV as that doesn't give me a headache like spending more than 20mins or so in front of the PC. This weekend I watched The Last Castle, Ice Age and About a Boy. All pretty good flicks. I taped Black Hawk Down, Sum of All Fears and The Fast and the Furious for today. :) Wish me luck for Friday, and thanks to those of you that have sent me get well wishes via email. I really appreciate them!!! :) Everything went / and is going great so far.

I find it horrifying when the human eye is involved in a sort of surgery <shiver>. I don't have problems with pain: toothaches were common with me, backaches - too much motorcycle riding - too, migrane headaches are a twice monthly thing with me....but just touching my eye would provoke a fast reflex, in the form of a knock down fist blow ;) How are you doing? Did it go off well??!!!???:wow: Hey Jules,
