Hasu Shah tells the story of his laser eye surgery experience

How did Hasu Shah feel before laser eye surgery?

I think that the biggest frustration is really waking up in the morning, scrambling around looking for your glasses before you can actually really see or do anything. Overall from a lifestyle perspective, especially sports, going swimming, there always was more planning required in order to I think fully enjoy these things, so overall I just seemed to be limited. Even socially–you go out, spend a night out, and it gets quite late. Having contact lenses in for that number of hours was just very uncomfortable and it wouldn’t be necessarily safe to drive at that point. So overall it just felt like the right choice to opt for laser surgery.

Post-surgery, you do still have a bit of discomfort, but that’s the starting point when you really understand that, wow, there is a change here. I can suddenly start seeing things a lot clearer. And as the hours went by, as a day went by, everything really became a lot sharper, clearer, and again, suddenly you have to remind yourself that you don’t have a need for glasses or contact lenses. So it takes a little bit of adjusting, but I would say very, very quickly post-surgery, your life is transformed into a 20/20 vision.
