Before my eye surgery, my vision was beyond terrible.  It was to the point where my glasses were heavy on my face and causing indentations on the bridge of my nose and above both ears!  I'm sure there are enough of you out there who know this can present a special challenge when hunting. 

Let's recap, shall we?  It's typically cold when you hunt.  You like to stay warm in the cold.  Staying warmer longer increases your time on stand, thus your chance of seeing game animals.  Because of my glasses, I had to choose either warmth or being able to see.   I could not have both!  Covering the mouth and nose keeps you much warmer but that also fogs you up in a hurry.  Leave the mouth and nose uncovered and you could see better, but you could also count on an early departure in time to catch the tail end of the breakfast buffet!  At one point, I remember thinking I had just as good a chance at seeing deer from the cabin without fogged up lenses as I did in the tree stand.

I decided to make the call to schedule an "informational session" with the Lasik Plus folks in Maple Grove.  The next thing you know, I'm walking out a new man with better than 20/20 vision!  The procedure was quick and painless; the recovery very tolerable topped off with great customer service.

Since then, I've been shooting with more confidence, maximizing my time on the stand, and enjoying the hunting experience even more than before.  I know every morning I roll out of that warm sleeping bag, I have a great chance of seeing something even in foggy damp conditions!  For anyone else out there who struggles with optics/lens fogging, I would highly recommend learning more about the Lasik options.
