Transition to Awesomeness = Complete
I received this product at a discount in exchange for an honest review.<br /><br />I have surfer's eye and yes, it is as cool as it sounds. While you probably wish you had it too, you should know that the surgery for it is not that big of a treat and will leave you with scar tissue in your eye.<br /><br />Whenever the sun gets into my eye, even through my polarized sunglasses, the scar tissue in my eye becomes inflamed for a few days and I look like I've been drinking and fighting. Think Thanksgiving dinner at my Irish grandma and grandpa's house.<br /><br />I have a patch that I'll use when working in the yard or sitting on the edge of a cliff but it is pointy (think Madonna videos- 1990) and it lets light sneak in where the patch meets up to the side of my nose. But with this new patch, NO LIGHT GETS IN!!!! It is indeed, a piratey Christmas miracle.<br /><br />The patch is extremely comfortable (think sleep mask that only covers one eye) and it lies flat over my eye, forcing me to keep it closed. But even if I open it, guess what: no light is sneaking in.<br /><br />Best of all, I look awesome. I want to wear this thing...always. I sit in the front yard and wave at the kids going by. Think Pirates of the Caribbean; only more awkward and less fun.<br /><br />Peace.
