 Hi guys, welcome back to my channel. As you can tell by the title, yes, I am getting LASIK surgery. So today is April 1st and my surgery is scheduled for this Saturday on the 6th. So starting today, I cannot wear contact lenses I must be in glasses for the next five days. I finally made up my mind and decided to go with this I've been running away from it for so long. I have decided to stop being a little wuss and Just go in and do this. I think it'll really make my life easier because I have been wearing contacts and glasses for the last Since 7th grade, I don't even know how many years that is and it's just been progressively getting worse Right now my eyesight is negative 2.5. Oh, but one of my eyes I have a stigmatism and that just like recently happened, too I am really really nervous about this. Everyone that got is like, don't worry about it You'll be fine after But because I'm very paranoid and I'm a worrywart and you guys know what a big sissy I am I just think about all the bad things that can happen and I just wanted to share with you guys My experiences of getting LASIK and my recovery process as well. D5 till my surgery. Yay! It is Friday One day left till I get my LASIK and Yeah, I've been doing fine. Just rocking my glasses for the past five days. There were some other Rules or precautions that I had to follow. So yeah, no wearing lens for about like four or five days And you're not allowed to get permed or dye your hair At least three days before the surgery and then you're not allowed to drink or smoke the day before And then on the day of you can take a shower But they advise you to only put on skin and lotion like toner and lotion You can't even put on sun cream or BB cream and no hair products or perfume to I was like, oh I guess I don't know. Maybe something to do with scent. Maybe the odor distracts What is it? I'll go in tomorrow and ask Honestly, the anxiety is like creeping up right now. I keep Imagining the scenario in my head just being in that room by myself Having my eyes like wide open like this and I don't know I'm trying to be positive and just um trying to Think about only the good things that will come out of this. I am excited. Yeah So excited. This is great. This is great upgrade in my life Everything will be good. Goodbye glasses My manager is evil. This is what he's been doing to me all week trying to make me paranoid and anxious well I am afraid and you ain't helping at all It is the morning of Saturday. I am on my way to the hospital right now. I'm so tired I only got four hours of sleep I had to take a shower this morning since I can't take a shower tonight. So my hair It's very looking very frizzy and Damaged since I couldn't even put any essence or oil in it I really wanted my eyes to be fully well rested and in its best conditions, but unfortunately I had too much anxiety I'm wearing my grandpa glasses today. I'm gonna try to shut my eyes for a little in the car I don't want them to be like Bloodshot red This place is huge I All the tests and stuff ended around 12 And my surgery is at 3 p.m. So we had Three hours to kill. So I spent like an hour in the car just resting and now we came to have branch at 2 o'clock I have to go back in And get ready for my surgery I don't know who I was talking to But I was talking to somebody and we were saying how all the eye doctors all have glasses and we were all like Yeah, that's true. Why won't they get lacing if it's such like a trustworthy procedure slash surgery So we were like, oh my gosh, maybe it's not that great after all But then all the doctors here actually got the lacing surgery or have given it to their husbands or their children That makes me feel a lot better. The laser I'm getting is called femtosecond laser And the surgery I'm getting is called smile lacing because they basically make a really small incision In the shape of like a smiley mouth. So that results in less Dried eyes and faster recovery Oh and apparently the reason why they tell you not to use any hair essence or hair perfume or perfume is because the laser Is really sensitive to scent Just gave me all these eye drops that I have to put in my eye in this bag. There's more So basically I have to put these in my eye every single day Wow, I'm gonna start right now Before the surgery I know I look ridiculous right now. I have my eyes closed I don't know what I'm filming, but I asked my manager to turn on some peaceful music. So My mind can be at peace Are starting to hurt I can feel the anesthesia Starting to wear off. So I'm gonna pop some painkillers But before the pain someone's holding onions above my eyes That's what it feels like We are also unwitting It hurts so much more when I close my eyes Tears keep falling It hurts to open it hurts to close. What am I to do? Oh, I even took Tylenol. Oh my god It is 8 p.m. I am finally out of bed. My eyes don't hurt anymore Maybe the Tylenol kicked in but it's still a little cloudy It's not perfectly clear But they said it's going to be like that probably the entire day today But once I wake up tomorrow, it's going to be Very very different. I've just been putting this eye drop in my eye for every 30 minutes I've been sitting at the timer. Yeah, I'm doing pretty good with this so far This is a preservative free max clear eye drop and my eyes aren't that dry But I just want to keep putting this just in case Because with lacy surgery It's really important that you take really good care of it after the whole entire procedure Just to be able to maintain your eyesight. I'm going to do everything they told me to do My surgery was scheduled to 3 10 and then we got there around 2 10 We were just waiting and then at 2 30 they suddenly called me in and I didn't even have time to mentally or emotionally prepare myself I was just sitting there just playing with my manager and just being like And then all of a sudden they're like come in and I was like what and then um I couldn't even take my camera or my phone The first thing what they did was take my blood because they needed to make this special eye drop for me Which is this this came from my blood. It sounds so creepy, right? They took out like this much of my blood and basically they only took out all the good stuff I don't know exactly what they put in this probably like the white cells and all the good vitamins from my blood So I have to put this in four times a day. I have three more I have to keep this in the fridge and the other three in the freezer And it's supposed to last four weeks. It's kind of gross thinking that I'm putting my own blood in my eye But because it's not red. It's not that bad And this is supposed to help my eyes heal faster I want to tell you guys more about the surgery and how it went, but I don't want to tell you guys in this state So I have to go back for my check up tomorrow morning I was impressed that they still come out on sundays only for the patients who got surgery today Just doing a check up just making sure that everything is okay. I'm not allowed to get water in my eyes So I had to wet the towel and kind of like pat my face But starting tomorrow I'll be able to actually put makeup on my face So I'll just tell you guys more about the details of my surgery tomorrow when I have some makeup on and Kind of look more proper than I look now. It's only 8 p.m I'll probably listen to like 12 ted talks today Yeah, that's probably what I'm going to continue to do for the rest of the night So I'll fill you guys in tomorrow It is 5 p.m. Right now after I got back from the hospital this morning I took a nap for a little bit and I'm up I feel fine in the morning. I kind of saw like Clouded vision. It seemed like there was like a really thin white strip over my pupils pupils pupils pupils pupils pupils Anyways, but now it got a lot better. I woke up this morning and I was like A whole new world And it feels so cool and before when I was taking a nap for a second I was like wait, I have to take off my contacts and I realized that I'm not even wearing contacts and I was like This is so weird when you go in to get surgery You have to sit there and kind of wait for the people in front of you to get get it done But you could see what's going on. You could see how the surgery is being done and that gave me so much anxiety I saw this man getting his lacyx surgery And I made eye contact with his eyeball. It was just his huge eyeball in this monitor Right in front of me and I was like I had to look away right away and my heart started beating so fast. It was so creepy You could see the laser like going around his pupils or cornea or whatever it was But then like I got curious so like I peeked again And then this time the doctor was like moving his eyeball around and I was like And that's what's gonna happen to me And I started freaking out and right after they're like please sit here Which is the exact machine that he was lying down and I was like, oh my god God oh my god It's just a lot of pressure because they're like don't move your eyes And you know when they tell you like don't move your eyes at all like it kind of like fidgets on its own Then they said not to put pressure on your eyeballs too. So I was just clenching my hands real tight But my eyes I was just making it look like I don't want to put stress on it So literally I was like clenching my fists this hard and then at first I guess they made a small incision over here I thought that would be the end of it No, but then the doctor has to manually go in there and take out the layer of your eye And they literally Even when I'm thinking about it right now they literally move your eyeball like this. Um, I didn't feel any pain. It's just Really uncomfortable and some people told me that when they do the laser You could kind of smell something burning, but I didn't smell the burning at all But guys I can see so clearly now. I definitely recommend it. No regrets. No regrets Just took out the lenses with these two glasses Got my glasses back Been 11 days since I got my lasik surgery Almost two weeks and I gotta say I'm really used to this life with no glasses and no contacts now And it's truly amazing. The recovery has been smooth And I I don't know what else to say except that it's one of the best decisions I've made I know how scared I was in the beginning and even in the surgery room I was freaking out a little bit, but I mean The result It's a whole new world. My eyesight has gotten better from the first day or first two days I got the surgery because the first two days it was still kind of blurry And I thought that my eyesight wouldn't be like 1.0 or be 2020 But I feel like now uh because they said it takes time for the eyes to get adjusted I feel like now I can see everything pretty damn clearly Like I don't need to squint or anything because I'm so used to going like What does that say? But yeah, I hope you guys enjoyed my lasik surgery experience video If you guys have any more questions about lasik surgery leave them in the comments below and I'll try my best to answer all of them And yeah guys I'll see you guys in the next video
