It's been one week and a few hours since surgery now. I'm well on my way to recovery, happy to report that the surgery was a success. My case of strabismus (crossed eyes, in my case) is almost entirely a thing of the past, though I still see shadows of a double image at this point. I also need to keep using glasses for reading and computer use. I was and still am farsighted, and my surgery had nothing to do with that problem in particular.

There's a bit of scarring left and my eyes are slightly bloody, but at least I can use it to turn Matt's stomach. (Could have provided a link to photos of my eyes, but I'll spare you.)

Here's to modern medicine!
