Glad you are feeling better Clod, that was truly crummy! I've heard horror stores about that procedure too...they totally lie to you, I think.."Oh, it will be fine...a few days of minor discomfort." Yeah, right.

I had lasik too and had a few problems, the first attempt only got me to 20/40. But after the second attempt, my right eye is practically 20/20, and I think my left eye is close, but it is suffering more astigmatism and so my vision is always just slightly off. Ive gotten used to it. My close vison went down the tubes, though, so I have reading glasses stashed EVERYWHERE. But I am fifty, so I just blame it on age. I started off as bad as you, I think. Really, really high nearsightedness and astigmatism. So I am definitely much BETTER OFF.
