hi well u r lucky cuz u can see now my problem is way difficult i have a lazy eye and a catarac too so i was happy until a doctor told me about a cosmetic surgery to fix my eye to look normal but he said i cant recover vision on my lazy eye cuz is to late for it and i dont know what to do, it is no sense to get fix my eye so nobody can see my strabismus thats cool i guess but im afraid of pain.

@xxxcynthia1984xxx My pain was minimal. I had the surgery for cosmetic reasons. I debated about it for a couple years. It wasn't until i took a real nice picture with my family that i noticed how bad it was. i was picked on when i was a kid about it and as an adult i got funny looks and the comment 'are you looking at me?' my true friends and family didn't mind my looks, but my low self esteem got to me. in the long run i did it for me.

@pangakis5 - Yes! Isn't it wonderful? No more funny looks from people; no more being embarrassed and no more silly questions. Having straight eyes is WONDERFUL! :-D

@wisman2000 - Same here. Had both of my eyes done yesterday and was totally under. I would never have had the courage to go through that while awake. It's great finally to have straight eyes! =)

When I get the go-ahead from my surgeon, I'm going to have Lasik done. After 47 years, I'm really sick of contacts & glasses.

How have you been after your surgery? Any second or third needed?

Thanks,

Denise

@pangakis5 - Hi pangakis5. Same here. In my case, both of my eyes wandered. Back in the 60s & 70s, docs told my parents I would probably grow out of it. 2 years ago, my daughter graduated high school & picts were taken. I concentrated very hard to make sure my weaker eye was straight, but a week later, my daughter put her picts up on FaceBook. When I saw the pict w/the 2 of us, I got sick. The eye was ALL the way out. I begged her to take it down. I finally got the surgery yesterday.
