  1. We have ours set on the 2 hour limit. When we plug it in, after we have a signal we just shake it and it stays on until we unplug it. If for some reason it goes off, just shake it again but that usually only happens if we have a weak signal.
  2. It would have been between noon and 1pm when we went through.
  3. We travelled North on the I59/I24/I27 through Chattanooga on Wednesday April 21st with no delays.
  4. That's the best option, so much better if they know your prescription before the Lasik. Unfortunately the place I had them done is no longer there, and the eye doctor I used after them doesn't keep records that far back. Lesson learned.
  5. I'm hoping the Mayo Clinic will have more experience. I'm having trouble getting copies of my records for them though. I'll get there.
  6. Just as an FYI, I had cataract surgery in January of this year. Unfortunately it didn't work. The reason was that I had PRK/Laser surgery 20 years ago and because they didn't know my prescription before the PRK they didn't get the lens strength correct. Before the surgery I could see well, only needing over the counter glasses for reading but was told the cataracts would get worse so Decided to get them done. I told them about the PRK but they said it would be OK. They wanted me to get the other eye done two weeks after the first and I told them no, not until the vision had corrected in my first eye. They offered to do a lens exchange to correct it but still couldn't guarantee it would work. I am in the process of trying to get copies of my records so I can get a consult with the Mayo Cinic and determine what to do. Frustrated at having to wear prescription glasses all the time now, for both long distance and reading but at least I can still see. My vision is getting worse though so I will have to sort something out. Sorry to ramble on, but I want to advise anyone who has Lasik, PRK or any surgery at any time to make sure you get a copy of your records. If you have to have cataract surgery later the records will help to show what your prescription was before the lasik and they will be able to more accurately determine the cataract surgery requirements.
