Day 3

Was supposed to go for my post-opt checkup today at 8.30am at the eye centre today...but im sure anyone who knows me that being anywhere but in my bed at 8.30am in the morning is a goddamned joke. So i was late.

I waltzed in at 11am.

And boy am i glad i was late. I managed to see my doc within 45mins. Cool. And i thought i would be there for hours. I guess sometimes it really does pay to be late. At least i got a free ride to the SNEC (courtesy of mr mimosa) and didnt have to drag myself out of bed.

So, hows my eye?

Well, i have this giant red splotch in my right eye. The blood vessels in the right eye burst yesterday because of the doc had to literally jam the damned ring into my eye. So i look really scary now when i open my eyes wide and glare at you. I give a new meaning to the term "bloodshot eyes".

But the splotches dont hurt me...they only bruise my ego cuz i don't think my eyes are quite so pretty anymore. Sigh..but they are supposed to go away in a week or two. If they don't, i'll stand outside the SNEC and scream.


*note to mr mimosa: Hah! I was right! My right eye was really swollen and really hurt and it wasn't all just psychological. Huh...you'd never understand becuz u have big eyes, damnit.*


My vision is pretty good..though the clarity fluctuates somewhat. It's supposed to stabilize in a month or so. Oh, and the glare of the lights. It's horrible. I wear dark glasses all the time now. In fact, i'm wearing them now (its 3.30am in the morning) as i stare at the screen and type. I feel like a vampire. I embrace the dark...haha...cuz i get dizzy when im in bright light. Sigh.

And i can't wear eye makeup for a week. Oh, the torture!!! My dark eye rings are finally seeing the light of day for the first time in years. Haha...I'm so glad i didn't do this after i started work. I think i will seriously scare the living daylights out of anyone. Hahahahah.....
