I also tend to have very acute hearing. But it's not just that. I'm really good about picking my way through an familiar room at night. And when I want to do really fine embroidery, it's nice to be able to focus up close -- as in nearly touching my nose!

it made me paranoid. I had that diorder where you keep doing the same things over nad over again. If my glasses fell off my nightstand or got moved I could not find them. I was paranoid someone would break in and I wouldn't be able to see to find a weapon. I checked the doors and window loks about 40 times before I went to bed and sometimes i would wake up to check them again. At one time I was sleeping with a gun under my pillow. After I had the surgery I stopped doing all that. I still check the door to make sure they are locked, btu I rarely check the windows now. I check the windows only when i'm alone in the house and only the first night. I'm really happy I got it done. (actually they had to do it twice because my eye pressure is so low they didn't heal right the first time and NO I don't do drugs...LOL...)
