No, but I did wake up during it. I joking asked my doctor if I had to watch and he had my anesthesia increased with the bat of his eye at his assistant doctor. They did twilight anesthesia. So, we didn't talk, except for that one question I asked. I preferred it that way - no anxiety. :)

I think it took 45 minutes or so. Not sure anymore, but it was pretty short.

Keep asking - I encourage questions, and I would love to share any info I can! Good luck to you. If you need it, do it!

I was 56 when I had when I had the procedure done. Another reader of this site just had her eyes done by this doctor, and she is thrilled.
