Eye for an Eye


An eye for an eye!

Where to start? Today I went into the operating theatre to have cyst removed from my eye lid. It was only under local anesthetic and so was always going to be an adventure.

When they first inject you they do it just under the eyeball and this is painful. But they no not only do it once, oh no they do it 3-4 times!

Next they wheeled me into the operating theatre put on some massive bright lights then siad keep your eyes open, it was like looking directly at the sun. After they covered me in operating sheets they then set upon my eye. Now this is where it gets really bad! I can see everything they are doing, slicing, cutting, quartarizing and then stitching up! All the while this is going on I can hear my heart beat on the machine, I thin it was about 150 bpm and rising!

After the whole drama they let me see what they cut out, pretty cool!
