    Raleighdon had the surgery and he LOVES LOVES LOVES life without glasses. Okay, he's 56 and sometimes for close up stuff he needs reading glasses; but for everything else; he can see EVERYTHING and well.
    He suffered discomfort for a month after the surgery, and he had to go back for a tune up in one eye (they made him too far-sighted) but he happily went back and got the one eye fixed up. and it healed, and he's like a guy who never wore glasses; except sometimes when going to sleep he tries to take his glasses off.
    kind of cute.. they're not there.

    he started wearing glasses when he was a little boy.

    he recommends it to anyone who is bespectacled.


    good grief, CC, you are like me! (I re-read your post) if you are far-sighted in one eye, why are you wearing glasses? I am 20-20 in one eye and 20-200 or 400 in the other.
    I do not wear glasses except for computer work and reading (I'm of the age you know)
    I took the driving test w/o glasses, was told i did not need to wear corrective lenses if i have one good eye. I pass the test just fine.
    I can't be an airplane pilot (don't care) and don't have depth perception, but my lazy eye does almost nothing so why correct it? it's great for closeups.
    I hope this different perspective may cast some light on your situation.
