So, Will I Be Able To Skate Now?

By Brendan O'Reilly

Worst weekend ever for me. Because of glasses. I'll explain via video blogging soon.

This caught my "eye" on the AP wire. (Get it? Eye? Like the eye surgery I'm getting.)

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Philadelphia Flyers center Danny Briere will have corrective eye surgery Tuesday.

General manager Paul Holmgren says Briere will have a procedure
called photorefractive keratectomy. He will take a few weeks to
recover.

Briere says his contact lenses bothered him at times during the
season so he elected to have surgery.

Briere had 11 goals and 14 assists in 29 games for the Flyers
last season. He sat out 53 games with a groin injury.

The surgery will be performed by Dr. Michael Fung at Wills Eye
Hospital in Philadelphia.

It's a different surgery than the one I'm getting (again, a better explanation of that coming soon) but I thought it was cool that he got a story about it.
Hoping there's a press release when I'm going under the laser.
