My husband stayed home from work to help with the kids
because I wasn’t sure how I would feel the next day. However, I felt completely fine. No pain, just mostly clear vision. I woke up at 8am and did my first set of
eyedrops. Then I went to my post-op
check-up at 9am. Vision was 20/40 in the
left (PRK) eye, 20/20 in the right (LASIK) eye, and 20/15 for both eyes! Dr. Wiley was extremely happy with my
results. He reminded me that tonight and
tomorrow would be the worst as far as discomfort goes in my left (PRK) eye but
that my right (LASIK) eye should be fine from now on. I continued my 4 times a day eye drop regimen; drops at breakfast, drops at lunch time, drops at dinner, and drops at bedtime. My husband took the kids out to dinner but I
decided to stay home because I was afraid that the pain would hit and I would
force them to cut their dinner short. I
enjoyed the quiet and started watching the series House of Cards. By the end of the evening, I had a very
slight burn in my left (PRK) eye. It
just felt like it did when I needed to change my contacts. Merely annoying, not painful. Lubricating eye drops and an ice pack made it
go away. I also took a Motrin out of
fear that it would get worse. I put my
shields on and went to bed fearing the next morning.
