Yay, surgery!

My 21st birthday is coming up, and you know what that means.

I am finally eligible for lasik eye surgery. (I bet that wasn’t what you were expecting.)

I have worn contacts since the fifth grade. THE FIFTH GRADE. And although I am glad I had the option to wear contacts, I am so over them.

Putting them in every morning. Taking them out every night. Constantly applying rewetting drops. All but crying when a piece of fuzz finds its way onto a lense. And most importantly, not being able to see squat without my contacts.

I can’t wait to be able to wake up in the morning and actually see without having to stumble into the bathroom to force contacts into my sleepy eyes. And I can go to sleep without poking myself in the eye trying to take the things out. No more dry contacts and no more watery, irritated eyes (except during allergy season).

Just 20-20 vision and a hassle gone from my life.
