Well, it's my senior year in college and suprise suprise... I got a letter from the registrar saying i've been overpaying! Well, i've got nearly $2,000 coming back to me now in one nice lump some. At first, after wiping the saliva off my chin, I started thinking about what sorts of new toys I was going to buy. That FAL i've been wanting... A Garand perhaps. No no, that elusive M1A whose price tag has just been too daunting for me. Maybe get some new pistols? A whole slew of mil-surps? Well, after much ado, I finally came to the conlcusion that what I need to do is not buy guns with it... I've decided that i'm going to get laser eye surgery.
I've done some research and i'm actually going to an eye surgeon in Maryland early next month to get consulted and see if it's plausible, then get it done the following week if I can. I guess this guy is good, he's done eye surgery for Tiger Woods among other high dollar celebs.
So here's my question, to keep it gun related. What sort of things can I expect after eye surgery from those of you who've had it? Also, what sorts of things can I expect afterwards. Shooting a gun without eyeglasses I've never even contemplated such things. I've had glasses since i've been shooting. Terrible thing it is, but, will my perception of the sites be different in some ways? Will I have to "retrain" my eyes in the way I align the sites? Have glasses caused a sort of straw in a glass of water effect with the sites? Or am I just hyping it up too much? I've heard that firing handguns is a different experience for people who have prescription lenses from those who don't. Eh, just looking for some insite.
Your advice, as always, is appreciated.
