I was prepared for this when I went to see an optometrist. I went to a local one, just a couple blocks away from me on purpose because I knew I wouldn’t be able to drive home.
Even though I walked I also had someone with me who could help guide me home, because I was worried that the summer, midday sun would be too bright for me to bear, even with sunglasses, and I would not be able to see well enough to follow the path home. Everything turned out fine, but I’m glad I took the extra care anyways. It just wasn’t nearly as bad as I had planned for it to be.
I was unfortunately super busy with work, did not live within walking distance of any optometrist…
… and despite telling multiple friends and family who had had this procedure done before, none of them mentioned anything about it to me, oh and no medical staff anywhere in the entire process between telling me I should have this procedure done, to scheduling that procedure…
…none of them told me that the procedure makes you legally blind for ~1-2 hours either.
I am glad that you knew this was a procedure that required planning for.
