Had lasik done in one eye today (something about too may hours spent staring at a panel of LCDs day in and day out!), so this seemed appropriate:

Take care of that eye of yours Ken! We can't have you going blind on us!

Will you be getting the other eye done as well?

I'm glad there's leo and google. Otherwise I had to be honest and ask what a lasik is.   

Wish you a good and fast recovery.

Let me tell you from my experience: You should do a one hour break per day from starring at the LCD.

I've had several friend/family have LASIK done, and so far I've never heard any complaints from them. One friend joked about how it was difficult for him at first to get used to it. I asked what he meant, and he said that he kept reaching up to adjust his glasses that were no longer there
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.

He who MUST get the last word in on a pointless, endless argument doesn't win. It makes him the bigger jerk.

But you do know about the "Brightness"-button, don't you?
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Were you near-sighted?

Then prepare to wear glasses again soon, once you are getting far-sighted from getting older


Seriously, the above the one concern why I hadn't done it myself. Although, as bad as my eyes are they probably couldn't get them to exactly "normal" anyway. Just having had my eyes checked last week, it indeed seems my vision is getting better (for above reasons).

Anyway, hope it all heals well. Also curious if you will get the other eye done as well.

My daughter had her eyes done this way four years ago at 31., and has never had to look back.
The biggest plus she noticed right off the bat was being able to read the food aisle signs in each of the aisles without having to go up to each one individually ...

He swam against Bernard in the 4x100 freestyle relay at Olympics Beijing 2008. What an incredible race.

Michael Phelps needed this win to achieve his eight gold medals record for the most gold medals in a single Olympics, held by american swimmer Mark Spitz since Munich Olympic Games 1972. Alain Bernard held the world record in the 100m freestyle, until the begin of the race, and started with almost a body length advantage. Although being an experienced relay swimmer, Jason Lezak, with 32 years oldest male in the U.S. swim team, simply couldn't win. But Lezak swam with 46.06 the fastest 100 meter freestyle split in history. He was six tenth faster than the second fastest all time split 46.63. Which was also swam in this relay, by third frenchman Frederique Bousquet, thus ensuring Bernard's half second advantage. Australian start swimmer Eamon Sullivan swam world record 100m free, Phelps against him american record. U.S. won with only 0.08 advantage, the total time 3:08.24 was 4 seconds faster than the previous world record, five teams beat the old record. Unbelievable.

Hope all is well KEn.

I had lasik done on both eyes in 1996 when it was still fairly new and it was incredibly successful! After over 12 years I donow again require glasses but the new prescription is not nearly as bad as it was back then!
