Surprise surprise surprise. Here is another surprise for you. The surprise is that you would not able to see Himanshu Bajaj again in spects. Yep I have finally undergone a LASIK (Laser Assisted In-situ Keratomileusis) operation for myopic eye. I am now 6/6 naked eye from 6/6 -5 D each eye.
Some FAQs related to this operation
Q. Why I have undergone this operation? Or
Q. Himanshu, you looked prety with spects. Why the operation then?
A. Although some friends say I look smart and intel in spects, I hate to wear spects. I was wearing it since I was just 11 yr old. I hate to search for my spects every then and now. I felt handicapped without it. I was unable to see swimmers in swim suits while swimming specially gals ... kidding.. ; I was unable to bear scorching sun in summers without the goggles and I cannot wear spects and goggles both; I was not allowed to appear for BHEL interview due to my high power of spects. There are lot many stages in life I felt embarassed. Finally its all gone.
Q. What was the total expenditure?
A. who care for money when its from father pocket. Anyways it was around 16k.
Q. Was the operation painful?
A. Yes it is but its nothing in front of giving up your spects forever. For those who are going or planning for the operation. I would suggest have patience for 10 min during the operation as the operation really hurts.
Q. What are the precautions and medication post operation?
A. Post operation I have to keep away with dust, , direct sunlight, TV and computer screen as much as possible. And as far as medicine is concern there in no medication except for 3 Eye drops thrice a day.
Here are some guidelines by doctor
Avoid swimming and splashing of water on the eyes for a month.
Avoid rubbing the eyes for a month.
Use sunglasses to avoid bright sun, dust, wind and air pollution.
Avoid excessive viewing of TV or computers for a week.
Feel free to ask me anything more.
Take care
