25 Days after Laser Eye Surgery



I think my eyes are fully healed by now and my vision is still blurry. I see about 20/30. It is improved, but not crystal clear. I can't see in high definition anymore and when I see those big tv's at the store, I can't tell the difference between the perfectly clear tv's from the imperfect ones. It is a little annoying, but it is something I have to live with. I can drive about the same as before. Before the surgery, I thought that I was going to get the same vision without glasses, so now I'm more cautious because I can't really see the smaller bumps and holes in the ground as much. Now, I wear sunglasses during the daytime and I squint when I have to read or look at the computer. A little annoying? Yes. I now have to get reading glasses. So was it worth it? Yes. I can see better at night when I drive. The double glares from the windshield to my glasses to my eyes was making me practically blind. Driving without glasses at night is a major improvement. Most annoying thing? Looking at the computer. I have to squint to see the fine print. Is my life improved without glasses? YES! Do I recommend having laser eye surgery done? Yes, if you didn't have to pay for it. Knowing what I know about having having blurry vision after surgery, I would've been disappointed if I had to shell out $4-6000 dollars.

Picking Pumpkins at Butler's Orchard

Pumpkin!

As soon as October hits, it is pumpkin picking time! We went to Butler's Orchard where they have their annual pumpkin festival. It is full of games, corn field maze, hay ride, pumpkin patch picking, food, fun and playing in a barn full of hay. The girls loved it!

Happy!
