Suddenly I See

twenty years' worth of glasses - $1000 (+ insurance costs)

several pairs of soft contact lenses - $500 (+ insurance costs)

medicine for infections due to soft contact lenses - $50 (+ insurance costs)

co-pay for prescription eye drops for Lasik - $15

Lasik surgery - $3,800

finding out you have 20/15 vision after twenty years of wearing corrective lenses - priceless

Yay! Isn't it wonderful to be able to see! I know that Lasik was the best thing that I ever did. It is amazing to wake up in the morning and see. I no longer mistake my kitty for a pile of clothes on the floor, LOL. It is almost like seeing the world for the first time.
