My eye surgery was successful. I'm still a little near sighted in that eye but it's OK and can be corrected. It's totally amazing that surgeons are skilled enough to, within about a fifteen minute period, open a person's eyeball, scoop out a bunch of goop, close it back using only one suture, and send them home. We left our house at 8:00 a.m. and were back in the driveway by 11:15. I rested most of Tuesday and was back in the doctor's office yesterday for removal of the eye patch. Within minutes, my vision checked at 20/25 even though things looked pretty dim because my pupil was (and still is) closed down. Hopefully things will get even better over time but if it only stays as is, I will be happy.
