                                        Tuesday, December 2, 2008. Lasik eye surgery.Is it for me? For a person with myopia and astigmatism, the idea of Lasik eye surgery is like a dream come true. You can't imagine, unless you're in the same situation, how wonderful it would be to have 20/20 vision without the aid of glasses and/or contact lenses. Throughout the day, my eyes became increasingly blood shot and began to burn painfully. Now, imagine I had undergone Lasik eye surgery? Would situations like that ever occur? My Lasik Eye Surgery.

                                        Thursday, October 9, 2008. Anyone who is mildly interested in Greek mythology is familiar with the term "Achilles' heel", and how the great warrior, Achilles' only weakness was in the back of his ankle because he was killed by an arrow directly hitting that spot. Whether or not you put any stock into mythology isn't very important; what is important is recognizing how truly vital the Achilles' tendon is in the human body. So we have these amazing tendons in our body, so what?

                                        Wednesday, November 26, 2008. The human eye is an amazing component of the body. With it, we can see! Imagine what life would be like if you couldn't see? I wear glasses, and my prescription is rather strong, but I would prefer to retain some vision than none at all! Our eyes do a lot for us, and we sometimes don't take that into consideration. You can see a loved one's smile.You can enjoy a beautiful summer's sunset.You can drive! Life would be a lot more complicated without our vision!

                                        Wednesday, October 8, 2008. As we all realize, election day is about six days away, and now is an important time to be considering which candidate we will vote for. Not only is it important to understand a party's platform, but also to understand the party's decision-making principles. As part of the nursing community, I think now is a crucial time period during which nurses can make themselves heard and improve our health care system. Just by participating, we are changing things!

                                        Tuesday, December 2, 2008. I was fairly young when I discovered I had myopia, around nine years of age. At the time, I didn't know what "near-sightedness" was. I didn't figure out that Myopia. Is the correct term for my condition until many years later. All I knew was that I couldn't see the chalk board, the detailed contours of my parents' faces or the sign we passed by in the car on the way to the shopping mall. When I was seventeen and nearing the end of my introductory course in physics, I finally un...
