Thank you for this. Very comprehensive and reassuring. I only wish my own ophthalmologist was more forthcoming with recovery information. I mean, I know I needed this surgery. I know there are other treatments but they are less effective. I know I have needed this surgery for a long time, but they wanted to wait until I needed cataract surgery because I am a Veteran of the US Navy, and they have their reasons. At least I have had the surgery. I have hope that my vision will improve going forward. But they gave me no information about recovery other than, "Use these drops this many times a day for this many days or until we tell you to stop, and use these drops this many times a day until we tell you to stop. Take over-the-counter pain relievers for any discomfort. Wear Sunglasses." Not really much information about how long recovery was going to take. Your video fills in that gap. And yes, I am aware that by leaving this comment I reveal myself to be current in technology, which is an occupational hazard. I am a computer support and IT person. Somebody has to do it ...
