I had LASIK (Spivak Vision Center) done this past Wednesday and all I can say is amen! It is amazing. To see 20/20 for the first time in my life is overwhelming. This type of event reminds me of how blessed living today in America truly is. In 10 minutes I went from seeing the world as a blur to clear objects. No more contacts, no more glasses, wow. 

Now I would have preferred Jesus’ method of curing eyesight. A little spit from the Savior and two question would have been wonderful. Probably a lot less pain and irritation. I have been using eye drops like an addict and I want to rub my eyes so bad that… well you know, I could scratch them. But you can’t. So you tough it out and learn to perfect the eye dropping technique.

So even though I want to paint I know I shouldn’t. Oil painting probably is not the best thing to be doing while recovering from eye surgery. Not that you ever want to get any oils in your eyes, but always having to hydrate the eyes I figure there is a greater chance of getting something in them.

So for now no painting until my check up next week. I will just enjoy seeing God’s creation with a new perspective.
