4 months Post Lasik

Sedar tak sedar, it is almost 4 months I am contact lense-less and glass-less. How awesome is that right? I could see MNi and Aryan very clearly when I wake up every morning. Kalau tidak, tesepet-sepet kecikkan mata utk tengok kat mana mereka berdua ni tegolek.Di hujung katil kah, atau di bawah katil.

If you do research on all the effects post lasik, you gonna find a scary list. Mata merah, mata sakit, kering, pedih dan sebagainya. When I googled, this is what I got. SIla tengok gambarajah di bawah bersama source nya. Let me tell you what I feel after almost 4 months ini.

1. Mild pain and discomfort - This is true. If the charts shows 3 days sahaja effect ni, but as for me, it took me almost 2 weeks to feel comfortable with my new sight. As I mentioned in my Lasik entry previously, my brain tetanjat boboi bila power reduced from 1200 per eye to 0 !
2. Burning or scratchiness - Yang hak ini takde pulak aku mengalaminya. The only time I felt like burning in my eyes was during the surgery itself. Iaitu pada ketika laser ditala ke dalam bebola mata. Memang pun laser tu mengorek kornea dengan cara 'membakar' (read laser), that's where the brning feeling came from. But after the surgeri, nan ado.
3. Sensitivity to light - This applied to me for at least 1 month. Yang super sensitivity was during the 1st 2 weeks after surgery. Bukanlah sensitive mana pun. Just I could not see cahaya matahari directly. Mata akan berair sikit. But if you think about it, kalau kau tak buat Lasik pun, memang tak tahan kot nak tengok direct ke cahaya matahari kan?
4. Hazy of blurred vision - Oh my God I had a bad experience on this one. Kan aku penah kata, aku igt surgery itu tidak berjaya sebab 2 weeks mata aku nampak blurry ! Saiko sangat hokei. At time I felt so regret and silly sapa suruh buat Lasik tu. Rasa macam nak saman doctor (but tak boleh saman sebab kau kena sign surat b4 surgery). But my dr pujuk I sejuta kali kata mmg blur sebab my power reduced too drastically. Alhamdulillah hazy and blurry vision tu hilang after 2 weeks.
5. Dry eyes - Memang dry sikit. But I put the eye moisturiser religiously for 2 months. So Alhamdulillah after tu okei je :)
6. Glare, difficulty driving at night - Ni mmg sejak azali aku susah drive memalam because astig mata aku tinggi sangat (read -rabun silau). After lasik, i felt much better driving at night walaupun still ada pandangan yg kat lampu lampu macam mengembang. hah pasti kau tak paham apa aku cakap ni. Tapi kalau tgk lampu memalam, shape lampu tu tak sharp sebab ada cahaya kembang sekleliling lampu itu.But dr dah warn aku , disebabkan power rabun super tinggi, after Lasik tak dapat 100% perfect for noght vision.
7. Fluctuation in vision - Ni tak perasan plak. Sebab after 2 weeks, aku rasa vision sama je sampai sekarang. Post 3 months check up tak achieve vision 6/6 lagi.Hopefully post 6 months akan dapat lah perferct vision gitu.

Yang pasti, aku tak dapat nak menjaga mata betul-betul. Sebab memalam Aryan tido seblah aku, asyiklah dia tumbuk mata akulah, siku bijik mata aku lah, tanduk mata dan sebagainya. Hadoilah nak buat macam mana. Lagi 1, aku ni kerja mengadap komputer (kekonon macma pekerja cemerlang, padehal tgh tulis blog), ngadapa Iphone rapat-rapat yada..yada.. Aku takut kalau benda benda ni semua akan reduce my vision quality tu. Camne eh?

Past sentence : Next week is our 3rd wedding anniversary. Yeayness, Alhamdulillah.
