All went well; in fact everything is incredibly good.

I have uncorrected vision on the day after surgery that is just short of driving. Through the poinhole I could see right down to the bottom line of the Snellen Chart.

In four weeks I go to a clinic and refraction (March 15). I am confident that they will be able to prescribe glasses then that will give me near to or better than normal sight in my right eye.

Meantime the left eye continues to improve. The ophthalmologist is talking about a contact lens in that eye. This should mean that my glasses do not have to be imbalanced between right and left eye.

(A very happy) Andrew
