I did it because I was blind. Hella blind. -6 and -9. When covid hit I suddenly realized that if supply shortages ever hit hard and I lost my glasses, I was absolutely fucked.

I could not drive, I could not use two monitors, I would be functionally blind... I always joked I would be dead weight in the apocalypse but in the midst of a hurricane, a wildfire, I could be absolutely fucked. With months before a replacement pair could be acquired. And with all the shit that went wrong with covid... I just wanted to hedge my bets.

And the results? Did you died?

Went perfect. Although I had a friend who went same weekend. It did NOT. Couldn't peel the first layer of the eye.

Otherwise I have full 20/20 vision. No side affects.

It was so WEIRD though. I felt like I was on an assembly line. The process was so fast.
