New vision...

So last Friday I was able to have Lasik eye surgery....everything went well and even though I can't see 20/20 yet I am amazed at how awesome it is and *will be*! I have a new perspective on things though and for those of you that don't have any correction to your eyesight or very little this won't make any sense to you!!  I am overwhelmed and overstimulated at times by being able to 'see' all the time!  The first night that I really noticed it was on Monday as I was getting ready for bed.  Taking my contacts out have been part of my routine for the last 20ish years and was one way that I would get ready to settle down for bed and I no longer had to do that....it was an odd feeling!  The other thing I have noticed is that I am overstimulated while laying in bed.  You see, when I took my glasses off before bed everything just got blurry and I didn't have to think about closing my eyes for my brain to shut-down!   Well, now I can see everything around me and it keeps me awake/and keeps my brain going!!  I actually have to try to shut-off my brain and close my eyes in order to settle down!!!  I know these things will pass and I will adjust to my new sight....but these were things I hadn't expected when thinking about surgery!! :)
