Hi guys: I have been away for so long, that I don't even remember when was the last time I posted. My story is very similar to Diana's. I suffered from nearsightness since I was 12 and by the time I had the surgery (when I was 25) my prescription was -6.50 in both eyes.
I did not have any problems using contacts but I felt that I was a slave to them because I had to put them on first thing in the morning, even before brushing me teeth or showering so that I would be able to see what I was doing. So when I heard about LASIK I thought this is my big chance to be free, and free I was. I had my operation on September of 1997 and for 6 wonderful years I was OK. Then my nightmare started in December of 2003 when I noticed that my eyes were extremely dry.
Since then I've spent so much money, time and energy in dealing with this to the point of exhaustion and total depression. I decided that I just couldn't handle it anymore. These past months I have been away for the forum to get a grip on myself and deal with terrible depression.
I am so glad to read about all of your guys really putting up the fight. I really beleive that if we all have hope and pray with all out hearts, very soon we will see the light at the end of the tunnel.
I really appreciate all the advice you can give me and I will do the same. Excuse me if I don't write too often, sometimes I just want to "dream that this nigthmare is over".
You are all close to my heart and my prayers.
Love,
Jessica.
