    Mild sedation on mine ! I don’t like anything near my eyes and it didn’t bother me 1 bit. They put a lot of numbing fluids in your eyes a long with extreme dilation so I felt absolutely nothing . They do secure your head and secure your eyelids but I never felt any of that either. It was a piece of cake - the best kind

    my staff talked about food a lot and you are definitely hungry so that pulled my mind away from my eyes - but then again , I love my vittles.

      Mine was the same.

      Maybe their sedation was stronger.

        They told me that they wanted me to be awake enough to follow instructions if needed.

          Sounds like there is no set way and depends on the doctor because I was definitely out the whole second eye. 1st eye was a week before and I just remember them standing over me putting drops in my eye. Assuming they were numbing drops, then I was being rolled out to recovery.

              Nothing like having some relief from all of our normal body pains even if it only seems like 30 seconds
