I see trees of green....

Yo everybody! Just last weekend I embarked on a personal endeavor of mine. I medically tackled a problem that I have been battling since about the time I was 5 years old- My ridiculously shit poor eye sight.

I have had glasses and/or contacts since I was 5 or 6 years old and also have 2 bad astigmatisms. I have always considered Lasek/Lasik...but the cost was so much in the states, and even a lot of money to spend all at once here in Korea. However, learning how inexpensive corrective eye surgery was here in Korea, I  booked my appointment for a free eye exam and qualified for Lasik. The eye exam was very thurough and well conducted. The clinic was very clean, up to date, and filled with a knowledgeable staff. To my amazement.I was able to book an appointment that SAME AFTERNOON to have surgery. I consulted with the surgeon and he fully explained the process of Lasik. Within 15 mintues the surgery was complete and I was free to go after 45 minute waiting period/check up. I opened my eyes just moments after surgery, and for the first time in my life could see clearly! It was an 'aww and shock moment' 

The following day, I returned to the clinic for my required check up and also have 2 more follow up exams free of charge in the future. Over the past week my vision was improved even more. I have NEVER seen this clear, brightly, and more 'perfectly' in my life. As cliche as it sounds...I am 'seeing a new world'. 
I've always felt that if I were to loose any of my senses...I would be most devestated by the loss of sight.....the world is just too beautiful of a place to miss it's true shapes and colors. Now, and forever, I will be able to see even more of what the world has to offer in al aspect of life <3


Much peace and love, always.
