I had LASEK surgery in my early to mid-20s. They said my corneas could still undergo surgery twice, so I thought, “Oh, thank you,” and went ahead. Back then, after LASEK, people were supposed to keep their eyes closed for two or three days, but I opened mine and went about my daily life starting the next day, so I thought I must have been suited to it. Once it was done, it felt like a whole new world. But now, 10 years later, I am scared to do it again. Whenever I enter a tunnel, I have severe glare, and when I see people getting revision surgery, I think they are incredible... Wow T_T As I get older, surgery scares me more. Lol
