Cataract Surgery, Eye Patches and Such

If you follow this blog,

you might remember that I said I was going to have cataract surgery.

Well, the time has come!

Thursday, my right eye will have the old, gunky lens removed and a new one inserted.

For 24 hours, I will have to wear an eye patch to protect my eye.

Since I won't be wearing makeup the day of surgery,

I decided that the least I could do was to wear an eye patch I liked over the ugly one from the hospital.

(The ugly patch will be taped to my face to be removed only to add eye drops.)

So, I made a quick trip to Walgreens down the street where I purchased this.

 

This eye patch cost me $3.49.

I brought it home.

I found one of my favorite IPod Beads and glued that on to the patch.

I added a couple more beads, some silk cord, and sequins!

Here it is!

This is the patch I will wear over the ugly one from the hospital.

I can't sleep in this one, but it will cover up the tape!

I really like it!

Now, here's how I look in it!

Won't this be fun!!!

I can hardly wait!
