1	Take two - week 2 Just a quick update on my progress. The eye is coming along slowly, which is what it's supposed to do I guess. I saw Dr. M on Tuesday and she noted some progress and decrease in the haze from a week before. I need to remind myself to put tears in becau...	Feb 1, 2008
2	Here we go again I had my "enhancement&qu...	Jan 19, 2008
3	All I want for Christmas is 20/20 It's been a while since I've posted a recovery update, pretty much because I had to wait so long for the next step. In a nutshell, my left eye never really came around better than 20/50 vision. I saw Dr. T a couple months ago and he said if it didn't g...	Dec 24, 2007
4	Three weeks I saw Dr. M yesterday, just before the three-week mark. Not much has changed. I can see brilliantly out of my right eye if my left is closed. In fact my right eye is a solid 20/20 with a few letters off the 20/15 line. But my left eye is still blurry. ...	Jul 18, 2007
5	Day twelve In the first week, each day was dramatically different from the last. Week two is kinda boring as the changes have been much more gradual. I was spoiled by the quick progress of week one and now I'm getting a little impatient. My right eye is really co...	Jul 9, 2007
6	Day seven I felt good enough today to go to a Japanese restaurant (we celebrated the Mrs birthday) and have a hibachi chef throw zucchini at me in the hopes that I might catch it in my mouth. I'm sure he couldn't appreciate the stakes of missing and catching the...	Jul 4, 2007
7	Day six Today was a really good day. There's a little ghosting in my left eye and unlike yesterday, my right eye was the clearer one today. After five days, my vision fluctuates a little but is totally functional. I can use the computer with normal fonts, driv...	Jul 3, 2007
8	Day five I could actually read the clock this morning. Woohoo!! The vision in my left eye is considerably better than my right. It was my left eye that was really bothering me last night. It felt like something was floating around under my eyelid. But maybe it ...	Jul 2, 2007
9	Day four Today was the worst. I was supposed to go on a ride with a couple friends this morning. I left a message last night that unless things improved, I wouldn't be going. But I was really hoping that I would be ok enough to ride for an hour before church. N...	Jul 1, 2007
10	Day three I wasn't able to post my day three experience last night because my vision was so bad. I'm so glad I had read a couple other recovery logs to be prepared for the day three changes. My vision was actually the best since the surgery first thing in the mo...	Jul 1, 2007
11	Day two I'm hoping that folks looking to build expectations from the experience of others will still find this helpful despite a pretty uneventful day two. I'm still feeling pretty good today. There's no real discomfort beyond the blurry vision. I saw my regul...	Jun 29, 2007
12	Day one I had my eyes laser-corrected today. The procedure I had done was PRK (photorefractive keratectomy). I chose this over Lasik because I didn't want to have to deal with the corneal flap created as part of that technique. Writing this is pretty tough no...	Jun 28, 2007
