She shares her journey from discovering she was not supposed to wear contacts in the shower and deciding to look into the procedure, to her initial consultation and prep at the clinic. The treatment takes less than 10 minutes in the operating room, followed by a four-hour nap at home and a swift recovery that left her with significantly clearer vision by day one. Finally, she reflects on her post-surgery care, including using eye drops, wearing protective blue-light glasses to protect her eyes during the first week, and her overall satisfaction after 18 years of wearing contacts.
