Yesterday Migs had his Lasik eye surgery,before he left he told me that he is really excited to get rid of his eye glasses.He is been wearing his genius looking eyeglasses when he was 9 yrs old and now he is 21,a young man with a 10 yr old heart.I mean he is such a good and a very fine young man. when he arrived from the surgery,I can't help but giggle because he looked like a big tumble bee with his huge goggles,he can barely see and after 2 hrs he was in excruciating pain.He asked me for his pain medicine but it didn't help,so I called up his dad to prescribed higher dose,he was screaming and said he regrets the procedure.I feel sorry for him cause he had so many eyedrops every 15 mins or so,and if he scratches his eyes he might get blind totally. What really caught my attention is the goggles,he looks like Kanye West,while I am typing this,i can't help but smile,sorry Migs,don't mean to but it looks funny to me. Anyway LASIK stands for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis and is a procedure that permanently changes the shape of the cornea, the clear covering of the front of the eye, using an excimer laser. A mechanical microkeratome (a blade device) or a laser keratome (a laser device) is used to cut a flap in the cornea. A hinge is left at one end of this flap. The flap is folded back revealing the stroma, the middlesection of the cornea. Pulses from a computer-controlled laser vaporize a portion of the stroma and the flap is replaced. There are other techniques and many new terms related to LASIK that you may hear about. This morning he took off the funny goggles and told me that he feels much better and can tolerate the light compare yesterday.I said that's how it is little boy,No pain,No gain.
