So I got out the adhesive contact lenses. They glue them to your eyes for protection. My eyes had reacted badly to them and got very inflamed and blodshot. I should get better now that they're out but I still can't see print.
Sorry, I did not realize this would be week of healing before I could see. On the plus side, when I put in moistening eye drops, I can see well for about five seconds before everthing gets fuzzy again. I'm kind of like Arya Stark -- blind, isolated, and not worth following for the past seven years. Meager improvement: I put drops in my eyes and I was actually able to read. For five seconds. Oh: My doctor was very understated. He called my red-as-wine eyes "a little inflamed" and when I couldn't even read the big E on the eye chart he acknowledged my progress was "on the slower side." That was almost as understated as the surgeon telling me "the next two days are going to be rough" right before the surgery. It was the first time anyone had really brought that up.Comments

I envision those scenes from Minority Report. Tom Cruise stumbling and feeling his way around a filthy kitchen where the surgeon and his nurse had just been getting it on . . . slaps his way around a busted old refrigerator, misses the fresh sandwich and milk on the top shelf and pulls out the plate full of mould, takes a big bite, chuffs it out...
Stumbles into a dirty bathtub, fills it with cold water when the spyders come running in, accidentally lets out a single air bubble. Forced to open one eye to the blinding light while the spyder crawls around his eyeball to check his iris...

So he told me to remind him when I come back, and they'll use milder drops.

The fact that you can see after drops means your basic vision is okay. You just have to wait for your eyes to heal now.
I had all sorts of complications with my LASIK 12 years ago. White blood cells filled the space beneath my eye flaps so they had to be reopened and cleaned. Them the flaps got wrinkled and had to be smoothed. I had the same burning pain - it feels like the burn from campfire smoke but lasts for-fucking-ever.
I wore bandage contact lenses for three weeks after three surgeries on each eye. They eventually healed to 20/25 and 20/30.
Stick with it and good luck.

An eye appointment is something I need to schedule now that I have decent coverage, and I'll talk it over with the pros again.

1. Las Vegas has 2M people that live there. And everyone is from somewhere else which means many of the games will be quasi home games for the visiting team. So it won't be a problem filling the seats. Plus of course add in the tourists.
2. Gambling? Big deal. You can gamble on sports from your iphone anywhere in the world. That's an old and dated argument in the era of Draft Kings
3. Yeah it's weird to have hockey when it's 95 degrees outside, but if that were a reason to not have an NHL team, 1/4 of the teams would have to fold as well.

Good luck to ya. I agree, surgery isn't worth it if you'll still have to wear contacts just to see. Maybe the science has progressed since then.
Lasik still can't treat age-related far-sightedness (the reading-glasses thing), but they're working on that, too. Some test procedures have actually been done on patients in a San Diego study.

It's really a simple, painless procedure if you do it right.
First, go to a real eye doctor.
If the random guy you met at a bar says he's an eye doctor and wants to do the procedure at a friend's apartment because his offices are being redecorated, hold off.
Use someone who doesn't insist on cash upfront.
Try to be the third or forth patient of the day, so that you can see the previous guy stumble out half blind.

I had an assessment done for PRK surgery a few years ago. Doc said my corneas were too thin to allow for the degree of correction required. And apparently Lasik has the same constraints, perhaps moreso.
But now I have incipient cataracts, so if they continue to grow and obstruct my vision, I can have cataract surgery at Alberta Medical's expense, and get 20/20 vision again. This surgery has become routine, and low-risk.

I had lasik (flap & zap) ~16 years ago. It definitely took longer to recover than I was told, but I did eventually recover with almost 20/20. Night vision was never as good as before, but I accepted that as a good trade-off for not needing to wear glasses (could never bring myself to wear contacts; zapping my eyes was preferable to poking things into them everyday).
A few years ago the edges of one of the old flaps got infected and I needed drops to cure. I was surprised to learn that the flaps never really heal, at least not in the same sense that other cuts to your body completely heal.
Now that I'm well into middle age, my arms are getting too short and I may need reading glasses, though my distance vision is still fine. Still 16-years w/o any glasses was a pretty good run.

A current adviser to the Department of Homeland Security is a Muslim leader who has accused America of doing Israels dirty work, named Israel as a suspect in the September 11 terror attacks and has been criticized as an apologist for terrorists.
Salam Al Marayati is the president of the Muslim Public Affairs Council. He currently serves on the Homeland Security Advisory Committees (HSAC) Foreign Fighter Task Force, as well as the HSAC Subcommittee on Faith Based Security and Communications. (Note: this is not the Muslim DHS advisor The Daily Caller wrote about on Monday.)

I had it done like 11 years ago. You are correct no one really said it was going to hurt. It doesn't hurt at the time of course, but the next couple of days are like a double tooth ache in your eyes.
When they brought me back for the post op check a day or two (I forget) later. I had a complication. The flap on one of my eyes had lifted an I had to be reoperated on. They did it right then. I was not able to see much for the first couple of days and all of the sudden it improved a lot. 20/20 for many years. Now I have to wear reading glasses but can still see distance pretty well.
In the first day or so post op I was kind of angry at myself for doing it -- given the complication and uncertainty. A week later, I was thrilled and very happy I did it. Still am.

Dear Carbon, I drove a Prius once and it changed me forever. As son as I climbed inside he minimalist brutalist interio of this carbon fiber Japanese death machine it was as if I was driving a monster truck. I pushed start. The engine was a throaty roar like a thousand nuclear jet bombers. I immediately soiled my trousers to prevent this beast of the land of hentai from raping me. Tentacles are NOT OKAY. In my haste to escape, I touched a lever, and the windshield wipers began beating like a reapers sickle threshing horror. Trying to reach the escape handle, I struck a phallus-like pole, and lights began to blink. Blink. Blink. A light. A terrible, red light! BLINK BLINK! Shrieking and flailing, I clutched desperately at the door, and tumbled, helpless, into the street. In the cold New York City rain, I lay there helpless and soiled in the gutter. The terrifying Prius looming over me, asserting its alpha dominance, and I crawled away. Forever.

Yesterday, fisherman who have been hurt by the EU planed a protest in support of Brexit. They were going to sail up the Thames to Westminster.

I can't see how something like this changes someone's mind - let alone millions of peoples' minds - on the issue.
I'm for Brexit! Oh no, an MP who was anti-Brexit was murdered. I've changed my mind!

He currently serves on the Homeland Security Advisory Committees (HSAC)
Foreign Fighter Task Force, as well as the HSAC Subcommittee on Faith
Based Security and Communications.
There's also the Homeland Security Advisory Council's (HSAC) Subcommittee on Countering Violent Extremism. Obama essentially created all these DHS civilian advisory boards and packed 'em radical muslims so that DHS would be completely neutered. But then, DHS is run by a muslim convert who seems awfully concerned about showing proper respect to muslims - maybe more that paying respect to freakin citizens.

It does strike me as a bit suspicious, given how much money England represents for the EU. They are about 20% or more of the entire GDP of the EU, and control most of its finances. Banking and stocks etc are run through London. Them leaving would hang Germany out to dry, being the only productive economic powerhouse left.
That's a lot of incentive to find some lunatic and push him over the edge.

The British are EXTREMELY conscious of being perceived as "improper" by being associated with a social pariah. This is the news of the year in the UK and it will scare off probably one-third of all Brexit voters. The "Stay" camp with "go there" on a blitz from now til election day: "So, you want to KILL your opponents like a fascist?" "No no, I jus think that the EU is..." "SHUT UP, fascist murderer!"

The Taliban are using child sex slaves to mount crippling
insider attacks on police in southern Afghanistan, exploiting the pervasive
practice of "bacha bazi" - paedophilic boy play - to infiltrate security
ranks, multiple officials and survivors of such assaults told AFP.
The ancient custom is prevalent across Afghanistan, but
nowhere does it seem as entrenched as in the province of Uruzgan, where "bacha
bereesh" - or boys without beards - widely become objects of lustful attraction
for powerful police commanders.
We definitely need to bring more people here from
Afghanistan.

Hillary Clinton's campaign is trying to reintroduce the former secretary of state to voters.
Their
second set of general election ads focus on her decades advocating for
children, including her work as first lady on the Children's Health
Insurance Program.
Unlike her first set of ads, they do not mention presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump.
Nothing says "my campaign is going just fine" quite like "reintroducing" the candidate to the electorate.

That't the myth -- that countries with strict gun control are gun free. In every country there's a thriving black market where anyone can get anything they want, for a price. Even in countries where you can legally get a gun w/enough paperwork, at some point it just becomes easier/cheaper to go underground. That's one (of many) reason why gun control doesn't work. At the point where people start ignoring the law, further laws have no effect.

Posted by: chris at June 16, 2016 04:57 PM (7F2Fj)
Last January I had fusion surgery on the C3-C4 vertebrae/disc area in my neck. It was far more brutal than I'd been led to believe. For on thing they hyper-extend your neck (tilt it all the way back, then go about the same distance again - get someone to help if you can't swing it yourself) for the entire surgery, and they hold you that way. Also, they go in through the front and so have to move basically everything in the front of the throat over to the side so they can surgery.
So the next day, as I was preparing to leave, the doc (who could easily see what kind of pain I'd spent a horrible night in) said, "Okay, now, this is going to get worse before it gets better. For about two or so days. But THEN it'll get better. Slowly. Very slowly."
Yeah? You don't say.
Good luck and fast/faster healing, Ace.

Mostly that's true, but I have a small area where the sensation is still messed up, 12 years later. The surgeon told me that sometimes the nerves are not just cut but damaged and can actually cause pain, and that some older surgeons would do something to kill the nerve pre-emptively, in case it MIGHT cause problems.
