It did go well. My eye is still a bit milky this morning, but it's improving. No discomfort at all. Have my post-op check later today, then a vision check in a week. I made the anesthesiologist laugh. He announced that he had started the drip and a few seconds later, I confirmed that he had reached "One martini."

One thing irked me. Halfway through the procedure, the nurses started talking about their resumes and related stuff. I finally said "Can we cut the chit-chat and do our jobs?" The doctor didn't say anything right then but I suspect he may have later I was wheeled out. I thought it was unprofessional and lax. If he brings it up again today, that's what I'm going to tell him.
