nikolina, I'm actually part of a study group that had a drop of medication inserted in my eye, instead of using the drops.

The only downside so far is I have to go in for evaluations twice a week for four weeks. Other than that, so far so good.

As far as 2-4 weeks to heal up from the operation, yep, no smoking or shooting until NEXT weekend. It's killing me !!!
