Worst mistake of my life. I am 46 now and really do not enjoy life at all anymore. I do what I have to, to get through the day. I had bilateral RK (both eyes at the same time), and two enhancements both on the same day. I see ghosting, double images, cannot read well, drive at night, go to the movies…."see the beauty of life". Every second I am awake, I think how much hate there is against my surgeon who did the procedures. I just do not understand why:

- The medical records stated that before I had the operation I had 20-20 vision with glasses when I had 20-15

- Why did the records nothing about medications I was taking when I was.

- Why did the records say I have blue eyes when I have brown.

- Why did the doctor keep reassuring me things will get better and they are getting worse.

My operation was in July of 1995. I have been all over the country looking for help. I feel doomed, and cannot picture living a full life. The day will come I will either get into a car accident or my heart will not be able to take this day-to-day stress. I wear 4 types of contacts during the day. Very uncomfortable. I am looking for hope and help. My topographies can be seen at:

I am willing to discuss my situation with anyone who thinks that they can help me.
