		<description>Tosha, it is usually not a difficult surgery at all compared to most surgeries.  If you&#039;ve not watched the video, don&#039;t if you are scared.  I put that there because some people were asking if there were videos of the procedure available, and I found this.  I suggest you join our &lt;a href=&quot;http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/EyesApart/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Eyes Apart Strabismus Support group at Yahoo&lt;/a&gt;.  It&#039;s also linked at the top right of every page of this Eyes Apart blog.  You will have lots of encouragement and feedback there!
Best wishes! Lois</description>

		<description>i think these pics are great - 
I wish i could have someone  take some pics of 1 of my 3 strabismus surgeries - however - i don&#039;t think the doc was really into that -

but my last one - i had a friend of mine which is a OD - be able to watch while i was under - she said it was so cool  

I will tell you 2 things - 
the first 2 operations i had was nothing like the last ( and final one ) 

The first 2 - the doc actually made a incision vertically directly on the sclera - in which - let you tell you - did not feel very comfortable at all - until the stitches worn down a bit  it really bothered me - 
this was  in 1988 and 1994

the last operation i had was in 2000 right before i got married - in the 6  years - they did not hold - and i was refracted to have 35-40 dpter of prism - to correct the issue - 

However the operation was nothing like the 1st 2 in which the md went from the underside - and boy - you will get a chuckle out of this one - 
I called the MD at midnight yelling that my operated eye ( that am ) is fine - HOWEVER my other eye is KILLING ME SO MUCH !! 

I thought you did the wrong one at 1st until he said that the dryness is what i am feeling due to the length of the operation - and the scare tissue involved from prev. operations - 

I laugh at it today - 
Post op - i was down to 6 D of prism - with double vision for the 1st time in my life -
That did scare me - but once my mind got the hang of the new imagine location - all is great</description>
