Ryan sees clearly now (the pain was none)!

For the last few years, Ryan has considered having Lasik surgery. He almost had it done a year ago and for whatever reason, delayed. This year we decided to definitely do it. Last week, he went in for an appointment for a consultation. They scheduled surgery for five days later. Yesterday, he went in and let them slice his eyes open. The procedure was only about 5 minutes long - tops. At the end of those 5 minutes, he had perfect vision. He came home and slept most of the afternoon (they say that is the most uncomfortable time so it's best to just "sleep it off") and by the evening, he felt great! He wasn't even sensitive to light. He actually spent several hours playing computer games! lol
Today we went to his follow up appointment, he now has 20/20 vision. Everything looks great! He goes back in a week and again in a month. Now all we have to do is take her prescription sunglasses back to Lenscrafters to have the lens swapped for plain ol' tinted lenses. No more prescription glasses for him! :)
