Having been nearsighted since I was 4 years old. I had to deal with "coke bottle" lenses for a long time. I have used contact lenses for 22 years but as I got older they bothered me more often. Undergoing the surgery is an emotional experience. The next day I could see and drive without any assistance. If this surgery was available early on in my life, I would have a better image of myself. I now look forward to learning to swim and trying riskier sports. My family still can't believe this!
