laser eye surgerygonna sound dumb but I’m gonna ask anyway….For laser eye surgery….?

during the procedure, even when your eye is numb, you can still see, right? (I keep picturing being strapped down on a seat, having to stare at this big scary scalpul thing getting closer and closer to me….) Also, if your eyes tend to blink a lot, could that be a problem during the procedure? (sorry… lots of question’s…but I’m nervous… )

they dont put scalpal to your eye and you are not strapped down. most places will give you a valume before the procedure, and they usally use propairicane which numbs the eye. when they get that close to your eye you dont really actually know they are touching your eye when they are. and lazers are really fast. it might not feel that comfortable laying there with people standing around you (nurses). 10 min your in and out before you think about it. i have assisted in alot of these and have never seen anyone have any difficulties with the procedure. the numbing drops slow your blinking already plus they use lid spec to hold the open. they dont hurt.
