I can (soon) see (?)

I had my annual eye exam today and I think I am going to finally get Lasik done next year. The doc told me I was probably a good candidate since my eyes are healthy and haven't changed/gotten worse for more than two years. Through my current vision insurance, I get a discount through a Lasik chain called TLC Vision--and wouldn't you know that my randomly chosen eye care professional works with the chain to do pre-op and post-op care. She said no one she has seen has had any problems and with their laser Lasik, you basically have a very very low chance of side effects now.

Why next year? Well I can actually use pre-taxed money through my work's Flexible Benefits program to do it--so a 30% savings right off the bat. Plus the savings through my insurance. And a reputable place. ... Seems like a win-win-win! :)

I am basically blind without my glasses so it would be AMAZING to see when I wake up in the middle of the night or in the morning, see in the ocean without fear of contacts falling out ...

Here's to clearer vision in 2009!
