The super small OP/procedure

it all started on one fateful mid-june hols....the right eye went swollen...see the doc...had the medicine it simmers down to a growth....the growth wun go no matter what...despite hte hundreds of glasses of chrysanthmun tea

and then it had a son! on my left eye...went to SNEC (singapore national eye centre) its at SGH campus...aligth at outram mrt station and take a quick 7 minutes walk....

alright....so had the consultation...made an appointment...to well have the op...

well...the day arrived...now here's the fun part.

nurse got me tt this seat that can move up and down like the dentist's...applied some solution to both eyes (doc gonna op on both eyes, btw she's a female...Doc A. Looi) the solution sort of numb the eyelids. had a lil difficulty moving them. after some time...the doc came..and she once more applied the solution. more numbing.

all right now the doctor injected sth...shld be anaesthetic around my eyebags there....purpose is to not feel any pain while she cut my eyelid i guess...

still i could feel it...started off with the right eye...could feel the snipping off of my lower eye lashes...prabably not to affect the cutting of eyelid...i know i know been saying cutting eyelid but has not happen...don fret...its coming up soon!

all right after snipping off the eyelashes she started...could feel a sharp pain but luckily not so sharp as to i'll shout...hahas then she seems to dig out sth can feel sth...and she did say sth liek that to the nurse...cant realli see...shone the overhead light into my eye could onli see orange-yellow light! hahas


then placed padding over my right eye...to stop bleeding and absorb whatever liquid coming up....then started off with my left eye...everything abt the same except its not as painful I GUESS...but as a bigger slit is needed for the swollen part...the bleeding is longer...

after she's done i was given a change of paddings. had to press down for 30s and dne release for 3 sec...after that i was given a change of eye pads again...

the one over the right eye was to placed for half an hour while the left eye was to be placed for 4 hours!! after the 1/2h,the nurse came and todl me to release teh hold off the eye pad and told me not to move aroudn as there was blood on my left hand. THEN i was 'discharged'! get to go home! woots! hahas with a bandaged left eye though...got many curious stares on the way down the hospital and by neighbours...hahahs

anyway 2 eyees are arealli powerful...helps u in viewing 3d stuff...with onli 1 eye...u will feel awkward..had some difficult gauging the steps...hahas BUT I DIN FALL wheu!

alright...so i peeled the padding off after 4h...had some clotted blood at the third eyellid area...got if off...so well...left eye's still a lil swollen i guess....but it will go i SERIOUSLY HOPE...

hey! wake up! i'm not finished! ehs, i mean i'm done for u if u have actually slept CiAoZ~

u din know did u...guess u din even care...like u will ever read this anyway..hahas
