Ok. Got the IOL rotated today. Should know how it is tomorrow or Saturday. Everything’s still pretty blurry and bright thanks to the dilation.
And John…. I saw the clouds/marshmallows this time.

update for me... I went in today because they are not totally happy with my results. I am kinda happy, because all I know is shitty glasses vision. The ghosting is still there, and my vision isn't as clear as I wished though. The lenses I had implanted have the MAXIMUM astigmatism correction available on the market, so there is no better lens. So... LASIK is the solution for fine tuning!
They did all my measurements and then mocked me up a set of steampunk looking glasses to show what my vision would be post-surgery... HOLY SHIT, clarity. I didn't realize how far off my vision still was. Ghosting gone and I could read everything they threw at me.....
So, here in a few weeks I'll go under the laser, both eyes and be done with this ordeal. And yes, the Lasik is free.

Okay. Had LASIK done on both eyes this AM. Pretty easy process! Eyes are clearing up and damn if my vision isn’t freaking amazing. Letter ghosting is gone, and letters and images are crisp.
Follow up appt tomorrow with clinic.

So if, for some reason my eyes get iffy, they fix for free. I hate eyes as well, but this was a pretty awesome experience, even having to redo one of the lenses. I still couldn’t do contacts… I can’t touch my eye, gives me the shivers.

I have studied the 96 and other Everest disasters a lot and I assumed what happened to Beck Weathers was due to Lasik.

Ok. Follow up appointment complete. Current vision is 20/15! I’ve noticed that a lot of my halo issues have gone away (still there, but not nearly as distracting).
Light sensitivity is still there, but I’ve always been that way, I think.
My eyes are still healing and adjusting. I’ll look at something and it will have a haze to it, blink a few times and it comes into focus.
I also have a clarity issue at about 2-3’ (computer monitors). Still some focal problems there. I may need computer glasses, but I was prepared for that. My vision from 8”-2’ though is Crystal clear.
