Eye Surgery of Doom!!!
« on: January 07, 2005, 01:56:45 am »
Ok, well I hope it won't be "of doom"! Basically, I get my surgery today. I should be good to go afterward, but the computer screen may be rough on me for a few days - we'll see. Just letting all of you know in case you don't see much of me.

That's funny, I just watched the Season Premiere of Season 2 Smallville and Lionel went blind from his Eye surgery. Hahaha... ha.. oh... well,um... Hope everything goes well! I know when my Grandpa had it done, as soon as he woke up he said, "Jeez, look at all the colors!" So it must be something special.

Was that because of the mediication they gave him?  Maybe the gave him something extra to see all those pretty colors.

T - don't worry, everything should go well.  Dont rush yourself to getting back at the computer screen.  the eye strain could give you some headaches.

Best of Luck Commander.

Umm... what would happen if the laser were to accidently hit the wrong part of both eyes, and Tbone were to go blind because of a detached retina?

Well I dont think that is very likely unless there was a major problem.  The laser functions in pulses (and is most handled by computers now due to the excellent eye imaging they do before hand).

They dont do both eyes at the exact same time, just same session.  Any problems in the first and they will wait.

It is pretty hard for the laser to deviate too, as it is controlled by both the computer and by the eye doctor.  They even have new features that can track your pupil, so even if your eye moves during the laser process, it is able to adjust (stop/start) to the right location.

even in the few years since I had my surgery done they have made some amazinf strides in technology.

The only thing tbone may not like is the shield lenses that will be taped to his eyes to keep him from rubbing them during sleep.

that phrase is more situated for speaking rather than typing arch...but yeah...anyway, have fun with the whole surgery thing...and remember T, as soon as you get back, we have to go to 7-11, buy a 5 lb. (pound) bag of Combos, load them into a Nerf Cannon, and have the most delicious war on terror ever!!

Good luck Tbone's eyes.  I just got home myself after spending the entire day at the hospital with my dad while he had surgery to have his gall bladder removed, so you have it easy.  Hope to see you soon, or rather, for you to see us soon.

tbone left me a message on my puter after i text'd his phone to say good luck, and he said it went well, the light hurts his eyes a bit still, he just jumped online to check his email, but he said he could see and "it's amazing"

so, so far, so good!! yay!! let your eyes rest lots and don't try to rush back here too quick, the rapid movement just might pull an eye muscle .... or ....something ....

and tizona, that reminds me of a tom cruise movie .... was it minority report? he goes and gets a different pair of eyes so no one can ID him by his eyes ..... tbone, dear, is there something you're not telling us? are you running from the cops again? ;)

i was about to say get back on your feet soon but that would just make no sense whatsoever, and at this hour in the morning as sleepy as i am i can't come up with something to suit the eye thing ....
